Note this part:
“The victory wasn’t sweet,” Young said Thursday afternoon. “I’m not gloating about it. I just hope the girls learned a lesson.”
…
The judge said that he didn’t think the girls acted maliciously but that it was pretty late at night for them to be out. He didn’t award any punitive damages.
…
The families had offered to pay Young’s medical bills if she would agree to indemnify the families against future claims.
Young wouldn’t sign the agreement. She said the families’ apologies rang false and weren’t delivered in person. The matter went to court.
What did these girls do? They put cookies on her porch as a surprise.
What lesson have they learned? They learned that “no good deed goes unpunished”.
I can’t believe that this woman would go this route, the even offered to pay medical bills but she wanted punitive damages on top of it all…
