She may win, just like the hot coffee suit, but I think her husband's claim doesn't stand a chance.
This country has become so lawsuit happy, it's absolutely ridiculous. Here's another one that makes you shake your head. --- Scott Bolton had bad luck in cell mates. Accused of stealing several all-terrain vehicles, Bolton was awaiting trial at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility in Pennsylvania in October 2003. His cell mate, Hugo Selenski, was awaiting trial on homicide charges -- the sort of charge any inmate would want to escape from. And Selenski did just that, climbing down a rope fashioned of sheets tied together. Selenski, Bolton claims, beat him to near unconsciousness in order to stuff his body through the cell block window. That, Bolton says, caused him to fall several storeys to the ground, leaving him comatose for several weeks, confined to a wheelchair for life, and with damage to his brain, spinal cord, nerves and internal organs. Bolton was found and rushed to the hospital by air ambulance, and he survived. Selenski escaped, but turned himself in three days later. Bolton filed suit over the escape attempt in U.S. District Court -- for "civil rights" violations. His suit names Selenski as the primary defendant, but murder suspects aren't exactly typically flush with cash. So the suit also names Warden Gene Fischi and Deputy Warden Rowland Roberts, eight guards, two County Prison Board members, and three County Commissioners. ----- Of course the warden says Bolton was a willing participant in the escape, and was climbing down the makeshift rope when he lost his grip and fell. And why did he lose his grip? Apparently Bolton wasn't moving fast enough for his co-conspirator, so Selenski pushed him, another inmate says. Tip: always let the alleged murderer go first! |
