Mom sues after kid steps in poo - UPI.com
Not reef related, but says a lot about the world we live in!
NORWALK, Conn., May 8 (UPI) -- An attorney for Norwalk, Conn., says a mother's suit against the city for her toddler's shoes being ruined by dog poo is among the most frivolous he's seen.
City Attorney M. Jeffry Spahr said Kelly DeBrocky of Mahopac, N.Y., filed suit against the city April 7, seeking $100 compensation for her child's ruined shoes and tickets for Maritime Aquarium -- which the mother said her family had to leave early because of the incident -- The (Stamford, Conn.) Advocate reported Thursday.
"I had to read it twice," Spahr said. "Immediately, what I did was say, 'You're not going to believe this one.' It was hilarious. What are these people thinking about? Just when you think you've heard it all."
DeBrocky defended he suit.
"I was just really skeeved, I thought the whole thing was disgusting," she said. "We had to pay for admission to the aquarium and my son had no shoes and it made the entire experience awful."
"The official response is her claim is denied and poop happens," said Spahr.

Thanks for the AM laughs. :-D
It is ridiculous... But on the other hand, for example we pay a lot of money to the city as the tax for the dogs. I do not know if you too, but here it is 50 USD for a year. And even if we pay so much, we do not get any services for our dogs...
