KFC Donating $30,000 for Scarred Girl's Medical Bills after Discrimination Allegation (Pit Bull)
WHLT ^ | Jun 16, 2014 | Candice Cole

KFC Corp. says it's investigating allegations that an employee in Jackson, Mississippi, asked a 3-year-old to leave a restaurant because her facial injuries frightened other patrons. A spokesman says KFC is also giving $30,000 toward her medical bills.

The allegation was made Thursday on "Victoria's Victories," a Facebook page following Victoria Wilcher's recovery from a pit bull attack in April. Photos show her facial scars and cartoon-decorated eye patch.

Smart move. I’d really be impressed if it was 300k. Though. That little girl is going to have to have ALOT of surgeries due to that damn pit bull!

I just don't know. I remember the story when she got hurt.

Maybe the grandmother wasn't doing the best thing for the child by taking her out. It was sure to turn heads and we don't really know what the child looked like at the time of the restaurant episode.

As I said yesterday One need only look at typical lib behavior to see how easily this could have happened. They are evil. the literal evil.

Read the whole article at Post No. 8. I'd say the grandparent is mean.

This child was attacked INSIDE of her grandparents trailer.

Hiring complete freaking idiots to work for you can be a costly proposition.

That branch has damaged the name so much I’d say just shut it down, permanently.

This is corporate Pearl Harbor —the CEO should fly to their house personally and cook them meals in a dunce cap.

Thanks for that relevant comment. I now completely understand why you think it was a bad idea for the little girl to visit to KFC

>> that damn pit bull!

Some say dogs can only be conditioned to behave this way. I say existence is intrinsically evil — and that’s not to say existence doesn’t have an equal or better amount of good qualities.

Baloney. Granny is out to make a killing because grandpas dogs caused this in the first place. Pretty hard to sue yourself for medical bills so what better way then to make up a story to blackmail kfc and get people upset? Mark my words granny is going to go to jail over this..it’s the old “look what they wrote on my receipt” ploy.

Victoria's grandmother says the experience has left little Victoria even more scarred than before.

Really -- more scarred than the damage that your ex-husband's dogs did to her face???

Mullins says, "She usually says hi to everybody, she was never shy.

Do you think the damage to her face from the dog attack had anything to do with her current shyness???

This grandmother is a shameless opportunist.

Maybe, but it is easy to believe some pimply kid said this, probably with good intentions if it saw the child was uncomfortable. I think contributing to her bills is a good gesture and with this publicity, maybe others will chip in to help this kid.

Gotta give some props to my local Chipotle which has an employee with much more serious (and apparently permanent) facial disfigurement.

She was either in a serious car accident or has Elephant Man’s disease. I can only imagine how awful her experience on the job market must have been. Kudos to Chipotle for hiring her.

While pit bulls are fine for some people, I would NEVER have a pit bull around children.
