So-Called "Railway Safety Act" Constitutes a Political Handout to Big Labor That Does Nothing to Improve Safety At All

America as we know it was built largely upon and because of our rail industry, and today it remains a pillar of our economy.

Wednesday, September 26 2018

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kim Richards has been ordered to pay $266,000 in a lawsuit alleging her pit bull, Kingsley, bit a woman.

According to news reports, Kelly Crossley sued Richards seeking unspecified damages after claiming Kingsley viciously attacked her, causing bodily injuries, including permanent scarring, mental, physical and nervous pain and suffering. The judge in the case granted a default judgment in favor of Crossley after Richards failed to show up in court. The amount of $266,092.39, plus costs of $865, was  awarded to Crossley.

This is the third time Kingsley has been charged with biting someone; the first victim was Richards' niece and the second her assistant. The latter of these two dog bite cases was recently settled out of court.
