Sweet revenge
WARREN, Mich. -- A woman sued a police dog that she blamed for injuries after it bit her in the buttocks. To a suburban Detroit judge, the bottom line was that the lawsuit was frivolous. So Warren District Judge David Viviano slapped 55-year-old Inez Starks with a $500 fine.
The Eastpointe woman filed a lawsuit last August against the city of Warren, several police officers and Liberty, a German shepherd dog in the police department's K-9 unit.
Starks claims she has suffered nerve damage since Liberty bit her during an April 2007 confrontation among police, her daughter and others.
But according to The Macomb Daily of Mount Clemens, neither police nor city attorney Raechel Badalamenti found any evidence Starks was bitten.
A telephone listing for Starks could not be located Saturday.Swamp Mafia

How do you sue a dog? Is judgement awarded in kibble?

For some reason I find this amusing...that she claims to have gotten bit and then got a $500 fine. Thanks Judge.

Police Officers put themselves at risk for strangers every day. Some do not make it home to their families. Next time you think of saying something negative about the police, remember...YOU are one of the strangers.
