The woman lives with an aged mother in a very out-of-the-way place. It's hard to get to. The girls came at 10:30 at night, when the woman says she was getting her mother ready for bed.

The girls didn't go to the front door, they went around to the back, and they didn't knock, they banged on the door.

The lady called out to find out who it was. The girls didn't answer, "because they wanted to surprise her."

In my opinion, the girls got off light.

Didn't you ever do the "burning bag of dog poop" when you were younger?

They got off light? That is the most rediculous statement I have heard in my life. They did not do anything wrong. Generally, in cases such as this where someone sues for Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress there must be an intent to cause emotional distress (none here), there must be some outrageous behavior = beyond all bounds of social decency (delivering cookies to someone beyond all bounds of social decency - maybe Today, but I don't think so), and sever emotional distress actually has to be caused (maybe some emotional distress was involved but I am not really convinced).

These facts are certainly why the court ruled in favor of the plaintiff. It is foreseeable that creeping in someone' s backyard at 10:30PM will frighten them...

"they banged on the door. "

So the 49 year old pinhead claims....

The lady called out to find out who it was. The girls didn't answer, "because they wanted to surprise her."

Again, according to the pinhead.....

In my opinion, the girls got off light.

What if it was the fire department saying her house was on fire? Would this dingbat sue them? That nitwit's house should be egged every day for 931 days....
