Cop sues Starbucks for coffee burns from free coffee

[SVTLightning]

I hope I run into him sometime just so I can point and laugh lol

What will he do now that he's damaged goods? He obviously can't be a cop any more.

What will happen to him

I just bet his station mailbox will be stuffed for a long time with empty Starbucks cups...Starbuck coupons and gadgets

We have a very fair code of what's right and wrong... he picked the wrong side.

No room for wussies... unfortunately like everyone else we get them too

Oh, everybody understands the legal system when it is they who are injured. Until then, make fun of lawyers and plaintiffs.

The "McDonald's lady" didn't win didley squat. She lost 6% of her skin (in the crotch area) and only sought $20k. She needed that money to make ends meet after not being able to work. Yes, at 79 she still had to work.

A jury first awarded her $2.7 million but that was later reduced to $480k. McDonalds still fought it and they eventually settled on an undisclosed figure below $480k.

The only real winners were the McDonald's legal team.
