Her attitude just makes it 100x worse and I get why he sued her because she obviously doesn't give a sh1t. The Defendant's apology was as fake as can be and I'm glad the Judge called her out on it.
"I'm sorry, but" is not a genuine apology, nor is it genuine empathy. It says, "I'm gonna tell you I'm sorry to make you feel better, but here's how I really feel".
My dad when he was in Taiwan once had a pet dog, a mixed breed (half Saint Bernard and half another breed) that was large. One day, the dog ran into the streets and my dad tried to chase after it. He was unable to stop the dog in time and then the dog got killed by a bus. Yes my dad was devastated though he learned from this and did not try to sue the bus company (it could have been any of them) because that would be absurd and a waste of his time.
My Chihuahua is a chunky puppy with a very small head. There's no collar or harness that can properly restrain her. There's no excuse for not checking but sometimes it doesn't work.
i saw a dog get run over, not a pretty sight was the owner fault, and the owner was f 'n ashole was going to leave the dog on the side to suffer,, people were screaming at him to take to vet 2 blocks down to put his poor dog out of his misery.. oh gosh, that just triggered me. so sad , ugh
Maybe if she were able to react to the situation... how would she not be able to stop fast enough and be in the rear tires if she said she stopped then just started to proceed? Like a kid in the street, drivers are always to be cautious of their surroundings, it's just that people don't care enough because their times are more precious than anyone elses can care less. Just like she said, "but"....
Im a mother of 3 and lifelong dog owner so I have all the compassion in the world and I would be absolutely devastated if my babies were run over but I also don’t think it’s fair to call the defendant mean and hateful. If she had run over his dog after driving up onto the sidewalk or into a yard, both areas where cars don’t belong, then she’s mean and hateful. But she was literally doing nothing wrong when the dog was run over. One could say the plaintiff is mean and hateful for not properly protecting his dog and subjecting him to such a terrible death. The defendant is not obligated to feel one way or another.

You gotta be vigilant and check everything before you take ur dog for a walk and you gotta check everything again when ur walking. Especially if cars or other dogs are around.

Our family adopted a Cattle dog/Corgi mix two years ago. She has an odd length in proportion to her size.The dog was 7 months old and being treated for her heart worm. EVERYTHING spooked her at first. We quickly learned she had to wear a harness and a collar to keep her safe. Even though she has calmed down we still keep her in both restraints.
I got two dogs had four dogs. If you got a harness There ain’t no way that dog is loosening hisself out of a harness. If it’s not put on properly, It is hard not to put it on properly. I’m sorry this guy lost his dog, but it’s obviously his fault. And she doesn’t know how to apologize… As soon as she said, but… she lost me!

Sort of unrelated, I had a momma kitty show up in February,babies born in April ..loved all 5 of them ,scrimped and saved to get them all flea treatments spay n neutered n vaccinated,I just buried the last of my babies on Friday! They are all together in heaven because people can't slow down on my road !!

How can anyone hit a animal and not stop???
Am I the only one wondering why the Plaintiff is looking for an apology from the defendant? If my dog ran into the street and got run over due to negligence on my part, I couldn't care less about the person who hit my dog. I'd be beating myself up for being so careless. It just feeds into the American notion that its always somebody else's fault when bad things happen to us. I don't get it!
I have a dog that got out of the harness a couple times until I figured out the only way to protect him is to connect it to both harness and collar at the same time. But I can definitely see how someone can use a harness for quite sometime and never have it happen to him, until it does..
It wasn't her fault. She didn't need to apologize other than to say she's sorry for his loss which she rightly points out, was HIS fault. The dog should have been harnessed. End of story.
3:47 if you have a wiggly enough dog it's quite easy for them to get out of a harness. At one point we had 2 puppies who were sisters (although amazingly one looked like a full blood Beagle (Lady) and the other looked like a miniature sized Black Lab (Mystique)) Lady was really good on a harness leash but we could NOT keep Mystique in one she'd pull herself out of it everytime~
According to Cesar Milan, an owner has less control over a dog in a harness. Harnesses are made for dogs to pull (something), like horses in harness pull a wagon or logs, etc. As another person said, use a slip collar leash. That’s what Cesar tells the owners, too. And put up high, practically behind the years, for corrective discipline.
The law is control your dog. The law is not wait 5 seconds. She didnt hit the dog on purpose. That man didnt come to court for remorse he came for cash.
This was a mistake on his part for not having a tighter harness or even grabbing the dog quicker and he has to live with that but i can see where hes coming from. People go about their buisness and as long as it isn't affecting their world, they pay no mind, lacking empathy and remorse. And so all i can see in this court case is another example of a failing society.
I walk my dog at the park 4-5 times a day. The park is next to a school and there is a stop sign there. If school is not in session, hardly anyone ever stops at that stop sign. My dog and I have almost been hit many times. Now, I wait until there is zero traffic on the road before we cross the street!
I love that Milian is admitting that her dog gets loose often. She says she’s tried to stop it yet she always tells litigants all the time that they’re at fault and they’re irresponsible yada yada
But her point is that they are the ones responsible, not the other party. She very clearly admitted that if something happened to her dog, it would be her own fault. That being said, I do agree that it's a little odd and that really even the judge herself should be taking steps to keep the dog contained. Even if the dog could open door knobs or something, keep them blocked. Put a chain at the top of the door That the dog can't get to put locks on the gate that the dog can open that keeps coming open even though they supposedly fix it. Tear down the fence completely and rebuild it with a new secure gate. There's a lot of things that the judge herself could do better contain her animals. Sorry about the dictation errors but there are a lot of options for the judge and for all of these litigants in the similar cases
@@amandamatheny3675 yes this is where I’m coming from. She tells her poor litigants they need to do better, but her as a Rich woman doesn’t do better. She’s usually quite rude about it too.
Yep. You cross at MARKED CROSSWALKS only... That's the literal law. Anything else is a risk of being hit as cars are not legally obligated to stop at anything other that isnt a crosswalk.
What a woman, can't say I'm sorry, and of course she doesn't feel remorse. Yes, it was the plaintiff's fault. Even if it was a child on the street, running away from its parents, and the driver didn't see it, not much you can do, except if the driver was speeding.
When you walk your dogs in public, you are required to have them on the leash and maintain control of your dogs at all times. Had he done that, his dogs wouldn't have been hit. You also can't expect others to be remorseful or sorry about things when they weren't wrong, and you were.
"You also can't expect others to be remorseful or sorry about things when they weren't wrong, and you were." There's a difference between expecting someone to be responsible and expecting/hoping they will have some remorse. The latter is simple human decency. If I ran over someone's dog, I'd be devastated, regardless of who's fault it is.
Judge 👩⚖️ Marilyn is such a Wise & Wonderful Soul, I Love ❤️ when she said to defendant, what Fire 🔥 we're you putting out, what cancer are you curing!! Absolutely Right ✅️ 👏 on!!! I sure miss her & The People's Court!!!
@@cypherknotthat doesnt make her a bully 😂 apologies are ordered as part of sentences all the time. So are those judges bullies, too? Oh actually, I just saw YOUR comment saying the plaintiff owes the defendant an apology. Hypocrite 😂 guess that makes you a bully, too
I believe the owner hasd the dog on a harness with leash attached. I’ve seen this happened with the dog wigging out. That defendant was very cold hearted with her “buts”. She was in too much of a hurry that she couldn’t even wait a few minutes, not seconds, to make sure the dog was on the sidewalk and secure before driving away. Shameful!
Harnesses are a joke. Dogs get out of them all the time. unless that dog was connected to a leash AND a capable humans hand was holding the other end of that leash.. the dog is legally at large.
Why should she say she’s sorry, she may be sorry as I’ll get out, but this is the country that somebody says. I’m sorry that your dog got hit, then they take that as guilt. They’re finally in acting laws that somebody apologize for an accident happening. It doesn’t automatically make them guilty, And his dog was off leash, whether she break it instantly or not, people forget reaction time takes several hundred feet.
I knew the plaintiff was cooked as soon as he said the dog started to pull away. It’s your responsibility to maintain control of your dog. The dog being on a leash doesn’t really matter if it can get away from you. All that said, I feel sorry for him and what happened.
Not sure why the judge is trying to scold the defendant she stopped, its not her obligation to *make sure* the dog is restrained by the owner. Oh well.
Unfortunately, that's the majority of society today. Everyone is the main character in their personal movie or music video. Everything that happens or that they do wrong was your fault, never theirs
You cannot litigate based on subjectivity. Dogs loose in traffic are a HAZARD! And when you are a victim of such a hazard, you have no obligation to remorse. Insisting on getting an apology from the woman is reprehensible and a gross violation of legal boundaries. It is bullying. Stay in your lane judge.
Yikes I wish she would’ve chosen her words a little differently when addressing the Plaintiff about it being his fault that his dog died. That’s kinda heartless. For some of us, our dogs are our children, so to say to a parent “it’s your fault your child is dead” is horrific. I just wish she would’ve phrased it a little more gently
4:46 He would never ah bin gawn if he had the dog in a proper collar on a leash...not one of those stupid harnesses, likely on a dumb 20ft retractable 'leash'🙄
i've told my 13-year-old the same thing time and time again. I'm sorry but doesn't exist because if you say but that automatically says you're not really sorry and that makes the apology insincere and makes me question every subsequent apology you ever make
Can you not see a difference between exrpessing sorrow that something happened to someone, but being sorry for some action of yours that caused something to happen? "I'm sorry you slipped on the ice but it;s not my fault" is an absolutely valid response when somenoe is blaming you for their slipping on the ice when it's absolutely nothing to do with you. Please explain why you think that's not the case?
This case was definitely the plaintiff fault, but I also have no question in my mind that the defendant is going to run over another dog again given her complete lack of remorse and her complete unwillingness to even admit that she could've waited a few seconds. She's just gonna do things the exact same way and run over somebody else's dog.
She has no legal obligation to feel sorry as she didn't do anything illegal. We don't make judgments on feelings. Perhaps she has a condition that makes her monotone or unable to feel certain emotions.
if I was one of her lit again and she did that to me, I would call her out on it. I don't care if these a judge and you're supposed to show them respect and all that. I have no respect at all for anyone who calls me by a term of endearment especially in a condescending way. She doesn't always do it condescendingly per se but she does do it condescendingly sometimes, but condescendingly or not you don't call a stranger by a term of endearment no matter who you are. It's like a cop that thinks they're above the law.
I believe him 100%. That exact same thing happened to me and my dog. He wriggled out of his harness, I stand in the street trying to stop the big ass SUV coming down the street and totally ignores me and hits my dog. Fortunately he did not die but it cost me a few grand in vet bills. Maybe that dude barreling down a quiet village street could have slowed down rather than ignore me.
This. I also think that the defendant was going MUCH faster than the posted speed limit. Most, if not all, neighborhoods have a posted speed limit of 25mph. I also think that, had the plaintiff not urged for the police to be called, she would have sped off with no care in the world. Everyone heard it from her mouth she, "told the police officer she was sorry" meaning I think she was getting ripped a NEW one by him. "I was in shock" is her excuse for not apologizing, how did she think he felt in that time?? Defendant is a bitch. I think she should have totally owed something, at least for the cremation because, again, if it weren't for her the dog would still be alive. Harnesses aren't 100%, especially with small dogs, they can wriggle and be like a noodle whenever they want.
I think she could have been more apologetic instead of insistently justifying her behavior. You can be sorry without also being guilty. I live in a neighborhood where people constantly don’t pay attention to their dogs and the moment I see a dog, even if it’s leashed, I slow down to a crawl because I don’t want to be the vehicle that causes the dog’s injury or death, even if it’s technically the owners fault for not being in control. Hell, if anything as the defendant I would have been furious at the plaintiff for not having control over the dog and being put in that situation instead of being so annoyingly nonchalant about it. That being said, I still 100% agree with the judge that at the end of the day the plaintiff is the one who needed to be in control and responsible for his dog. My dog knows how to twist and slip out of her harness if she really wants to, but she’s trained enough to know better, and even still I watch and feel how she’s walking with me when we’re in the street because I’m not going to trust that every driver is like me keeping an eye out for animals.
I believe they were on a leash. They can slip from out thr leash sometimes and he yelled stop cause he knew the leash was coming loose and he yelled stopped again cause he was trying to fix it
The plaintiff - smh! His wife died, he was avoiding a blind woman, blah blah blah - whatever he can say to get pity, so he just ends up sounding pitiful - within the first two minutes of the case!!!
People will hate me for this but I wouldn't apologize again only because he's gonna sue anyway and he wants money from it not no sentimental value or anything like that he just wanted money because why else would you sue instead of making a agreement
Clueless. “I’m sorry but it wasn’t my fault” ..who’s the victim??? It drives me nuts that we seem to be evolving into a nation of zero empathy and pure victimhood. Legally it’s his fault but the judge is right, she could have waited to make sure the dog was safe and actually have remorse about the life she took
She's in court with someone determined to try and make it appear that it was her fault. Why on earth is "I'm sorry but it wasn't my fault" not a valid response in those circumstances, when it patently wasn't her fault?
Glad she called her on the 'but'
Why?
Because it deletes everything that came before.
Her attitude just makes it 100x worse and I get why he sued her because she obviously doesn't give a sh1t. The Defendant's apology was as fake as can be and I'm glad the Judge called her out on it.
For some reason I pictured the rest of this sentence being,
"I have a blind woman that lives next door to me...
and she saw the whole thing."
I’m sorry this happened, but when you walk your dog, no matter how well trained they are, they should always be on a leash.

If my dog ran into the street and got run over due to negligence on my part, I couldn't care less about the person who hit my dog. I'd be beating myself up for being so careless. It just feeds into the American notion that its always somebody else's fault when bad things happen to us. I don't get it!
What would she be apologizing for? That's crazy
I have a dog that got out of the harness a couple times until I figured out the only way to protect him is to connect it to both harness and collar at the same time. But I can definitely see how someone can use a harness for quite sometime and never have it happen to him, until it does..
"I am sorry BUT..." Fake apologies suck!!!
It wasn't her fault. She didn't need to apologize other than to say she's sorry for his loss which she rightly points out, was HIS fault. The dog should have been harnessed. End of story.
She shouldn't have been pressured to apologize at all since she didn't do anything wrong.
Karma will get cane lady.
These people need to stop saying seen when they mean saw. It distracts from everything else they say.
NY folks are some of the most uneducated.. NYC school are worse only to Detroit and Chicago,
3:47 if you have a wiggly enough dog it's quite easy for them to get out of a harness. At one point we had 2 puppies who were sisters (although amazingly one looked like a full blood Beagle (Lady) and the other looked like a miniature sized Black Lab (Mystique)) Lady was really good on a harness leash but we could NOT keep Mystique in one she'd pull herself out of it everytime~
Then you don't put it in a harness, you use a slip collar.
According to Cesar Milan, an owner has less control over a dog in a harness. Harnesses are made for dogs to pull (something), like horses in harness pull a wagon or logs, etc. As another person said, use a slip collar leash. That’s what Cesar tells the owners, too. And put up high, practically behind the years, for corrective discipline.
The law is control your dog. The law is not wait 5 seconds. She didnt hit the dog on purpose. That man didnt come to court for remorse he came for cash.
This was a mistake on his part for not having a tighter harness or even grabbing the dog quicker and he has to live with that but i can see where hes coming from.
People go about their buisness and as long as it isn't affecting their world, they pay no mind, lacking empathy and remorse. And so all i can see in this court case is another example of a failing society.
Never use the word but is so right
7:40 You can go to the sun with them glasses
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I walk my dog at the park 4-5 times a day. The park is next to a school and there is a stop sign there. If school is not in session, hardly anyone ever stops at that stop sign. My dog and I have almost been hit many times. Now, I wait until there is zero traffic on the road before we cross the street!
I love that Milian is admitting that her dog gets loose often. She says she’s tried to stop it yet she always tells litigants all the time that they’re at fault and they’re irresponsible yada yada
Except she takes accountability if something happened to her dog. Litigates seek money for something that was THEIR fault.
But her point is that they are the ones responsible, not the other party. She very clearly admitted that if something happened to her dog, it would be her own fault. That being said, I do agree that it's a little odd and that really even the judge herself should be taking steps to keep the dog contained. Even if the dog could open door knobs or something, keep them blocked. Put a chain at the top of the door That the dog can't get to put locks on the gate that the dog can open that keeps coming open even though they supposedly fix it. Tear down the fence completely and rebuild it with a new secure gate. There's a lot of things that the judge herself could do better contain her animals. Sorry about the dictation errors but there are a lot of options for the judge and for all of these litigants in the similar cases
@@amandamatheny3675 yes this is where I’m coming from. She tells her poor litigants they need to do better, but her as a Rich woman doesn’t do better. She’s usually quite rude about it too.
He is jaywalking. You cross at the corners.
Yep. You cross at MARKED CROSSWALKS only... That's the literal law. Anything else is a risk of being hit as cars are not legally obligated to stop at anything other that isnt a crosswalk.
“I’m sorry…but”😂
This almost happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I yelled stop and the car stopped. I don't unload my dog in the street anymore.
What a woman, can't say I'm sorry, and of course she doesn't feel remorse.
Yes, it was the plaintiff's fault. Even if it was a child on the street, running away from its parents, and the driver didn't see it, not much you can do, except if the driver was speeding.
When you walk your dogs in public, you are required to have them on the leash and maintain control of your dogs at all times. Had he done that, his dogs wouldn't have been hit. You also can't expect others to be remorseful or sorry about things when they weren't wrong, and you were.
End of story
Right! And then walking between cars with unleashed dogs
"You also can't expect others to be remorseful or sorry about things when they weren't wrong, and you were." There's a difference between expecting someone to be responsible and expecting/hoping they will have some remorse. The latter is simple human decency. If I ran over someone's dog, I'd be devastated, regardless of who's fault it is.
@@newsflash7609shouldn’t be an expectation.
The defendant doesn’t have to care. Is not her dog and she may not be a dog person.
Judge 👩⚖️ Marilyn is such a Wise & Wonderful Soul, I Love ❤️ when she said to defendant, what Fire 🔥 we're you putting out, what cancer are you curing!! Absolutely Right ✅️ 👏 on!!! I sure miss her & The People's Court!!!
Thinking it is her place--AS A JUDGE-- to coerce an apology makes her a bully.
@@cypherknotthat doesnt make her a bully 😂 apologies are ordered as part of sentences all the time. So are those judges bullies, too?
Oh actually, I just saw YOUR comment saying the plaintiff owes the defendant an apology. Hypocrite 😂 guess that makes you a bully, too
The animal people are going to blame you, whether it's your fault or not. Control your pets.
I believe the owner hasd the dog on a harness with leash attached. I’ve seen this happened with the dog wigging out. That defendant was very cold hearted with her “buts”. She was in too much of a hurry that she couldn’t even wait a few minutes, not seconds, to make sure the dog was on the sidewalk and secure before driving away. Shameful!
Harnesses are a joke. Dogs get out of them all the time. unless that dog was connected to a leash AND a capable humans hand was holding the other end of that leash.. the dog is legally at large.
Why should she say she’s sorry, she may be sorry as I’ll get out, but this is the country that somebody says. I’m sorry that your dog got hit, then they take that as guilt.
They’re finally in acting laws that somebody apologize for an accident happening. It doesn’t automatically make them guilty,
And his dog was off leash, whether she break it instantly or not, people forget reaction time takes several hundred feet.
Dogs can escape a harness if the harness is not fitted snug enough, or is of a poor design.
Young lady on the street with Harvey had on glasses that took up 80% of her face 😎 😂 geez!!
I knew the plaintiff was cooked as soon as he said the dog started to pull away. It’s your responsibility to maintain control of your dog. The dog being on a leash doesn’t really matter if it can get away from you. All that said, I feel sorry for him and what happened.
Not sure why the judge is trying to scold the defendant she stopped, its not her obligation to *make sure* the dog is restrained by the owner. Oh well.
I feel really bad for the defendant - regardless of whose fault it was. Did he bring his dog's ashes to court?
California got rid of that law of jaywalking ! Sorry for the man's dog. Leash law for a very good reason.
The lady is on some heavy meds so that is as emotional as she can get.
The defendant probably can't feel remorse because she's so doped up
Unfortunately, that's the majority of society today. Everyone is the main character in their personal movie or music video. Everything that happens or that they do wrong was your fault, never theirs
Yup. This is 1000% his fault.
It is the same way in prison. Whoever causes the consequence is wrong.
You cannot litigate based on subjectivity. Dogs loose in traffic are a HAZARD! And when you are a victim of such a hazard, you have no obligation to remorse. Insisting on getting an apology from the woman is reprehensible and a gross violation of legal boundaries. It is bullying. Stay in your lane judge.
Yikes I wish she would’ve chosen her words a little differently when addressing the Plaintiff about it being his fault that his dog died. That’s kinda heartless. For some of us, our dogs are our children, so to say to a parent “it’s your fault your child is dead” is horrific. I just wish she would’ve phrased it a little more gently
4:46 He would never ah bin gawn if he had the dog in a proper collar on a leash...not one of those stupid harnesses, likely on a dumb 20ft retractable 'leash'🙄
If you don't take responsibiltiy, the situation will more then likely happen again!
i've told my 13-year-old the same thing time and time again. I'm sorry but doesn't exist because if you say but that automatically says you're not really sorry and that makes the apology insincere and makes me question every subsequent apology you ever make
Can you not see a difference between exrpessing sorrow that something happened to someone, but being sorry for some action of yours that caused something to happen? "I'm sorry you slipped on the ice but it;s not my fault" is an absolutely valid response when somenoe is blaming you for their slipping on the ice when it's absolutely nothing to do with you. Please explain why you think that's not the case?
The defendant is high as hell… She was probably also high when she hit the dog. That’s why she has no emotions.
This case was definitely the plaintiff fault, but I also have no question in my mind that the defendant is going to run over another dog again given her complete lack of remorse and her complete unwillingness to even admit that she could've waited a few seconds. She's just gonna do things the exact same way and run over somebody else's dog.
She has no legal obligation to feel sorry as she didn't do anything illegal.
We don't make judgments on feelings.
Perhaps she has a condition that makes her monotone or unable to feel certain emotions.
She is completely heartless
Dogs can easily get out of harness cause they wiggle themselves out, some harness are too loose or slippery material. Have experienced it.
That poor guy..😢
No, that poor dog. It's his fault and he is completely washing his hands of his responsibility.
Um she totally looks like she's on something her eyes are so gone
Exactly that!
She's disabled. She may have chronic pain or fatigue. What's so hard to understand about that?
I have Parkinson's and I can't drive she shouldn't be able to neither@@lukerinderknecht2982
She's prob on opiate pain meds giving her condition..and the way her speech is and eyes are looking
@@lukerinderknecht2982I live that way every day and I don't look or speak like this. It too much pain meds.
She still doesn't care...smh
Imagine someone calling the judge "SWEETIE" she would go absolutely nuts, BUT she frequently calls litigants sweetie, honey etc.
if I was one of her lit again and she did that to me, I would call her out on it. I don't care if these a judge and you're supposed to show them respect and all that. I have no respect at all for anyone who calls me by a term of endearment especially in a condescending way. She doesn't always do it condescendingly per se but she does do it condescendingly sometimes, but condescendingly or not you don't call a stranger by a term of endearment no matter who you are. It's like a cop that thinks they're above the law.
How is it that so many people come in court with canes?? how is that? scamming?
I believe him 100%. That exact same thing happened to me and my dog. He wriggled out of his harness, I stand in the street trying to stop the big ass SUV coming down the street and totally ignores me and hits my dog. Fortunately he did not die but it cost me a few grand in vet bills. Maybe that dude barreling down a quiet village street could have slowed down rather than ignore me.
This. I also think that the defendant was going MUCH faster than the posted speed limit. Most, if not all, neighborhoods have a posted speed limit of 25mph. I also think that, had the plaintiff not urged for the police to be called, she would have sped off with no care in the world. Everyone heard it from her mouth she, "told the police officer she was sorry" meaning I think she was getting ripped a NEW one by him. "I was in shock" is her excuse for not apologizing, how did she think he felt in that time?? Defendant is a bitch. I think she should have totally owed something, at least for the cremation because, again, if it weren't for her the dog would still be alive. Harnesses aren't 100%, especially with small dogs, they can wriggle and be like a noodle whenever they want.
it wasn't the defendant's fault, but where was the compassion?
I think she could have been more apologetic instead of insistently justifying her behavior. You can be sorry without also being guilty. I live in a neighborhood where people constantly don’t pay attention to their dogs and the moment I see a dog, even if it’s leashed, I slow down to a crawl because I don’t want to be the vehicle that causes the dog’s injury or death, even if it’s technically the owners fault for not being in control. Hell, if anything as the defendant I would have been furious at the plaintiff for not having control over the dog and being put in that situation instead of being so annoyingly nonchalant about it.
That being said, I still 100% agree with the judge that at the end of the day the plaintiff is the one who needed to be in control and responsible for his dog. My dog knows how to twist and slip out of her harness if she really wants to, but she’s trained enough to know better, and even still I watch and feel how she’s walking with me when we’re in the street because I’m not going to trust that every driver is like me keeping an eye out for animals.
For a judge who goes ballistic if referred to as anything but Judge, she doesn't mind referring to an unknown male as "Sweetie"!!
Is this where they got the concept of John Wick from?
That woman isn’t sorry at all!
He was in the wrong. BUT she should never be allowed behind the wheel.
Is it just me, or does the defendant look high as a kite?
Sad case. 😢
What a disgusting human the defendant is. She is a horrible person!
I believe they were on a leash. They can slip from out thr leash sometimes and he yelled stop cause he knew the leash was coming loose and he yelled stopped again cause he was trying to fix it
Then why is the dog IN THE ROAD.
That defendant is disgusting.
Defendant is heartless...
How so? You don’t know how she feels having run over and killed a dog.
@@Jade-902 Multiple times she couldn't even do a proper apology... heartless.
I dont think she should be driving....
Shes just a ball of nerves 😂 Shes high as a kite😅 thats why shes numb
The plaintiff - smh! His wife died, he was avoiding a blind woman, blah blah blah - whatever he can say to get pity, so he just ends up sounding pitiful - within the first two minutes of the case!!!
But.. But .. But.. you killed the man's dog. Show a little empathy. Stop saying but.
Verdict for the defendant. I’m sorry the guys dog died, but, it’s completely his fault. I know he’s grasping at straws, but he’s not gonna win.
People will hate me for this but I wouldn't apologize again only because he's gonna sue anyway and he wants money from it not no sentimental value or anything like that he just wanted money because why else would you sue instead of making a agreement
This Plaintiff is full of BS. His dog was off the leash no doubt... He wants this women to pay for his NEGLIGENCE
Clueless. “I’m sorry but it wasn’t my fault” ..who’s the victim??? It drives me nuts that we seem to be evolving into a nation of zero empathy and pure victimhood. Legally it’s his fault but the judge is right, she could have waited to make sure the dog was safe and actually have remorse about the life she took
She's in court with someone determined to try and make it appear that it was her fault. Why on earth is "I'm sorry but it wasn't my fault" not a valid response in those circumstances, when it patently wasn't her fault?
The ONLY victim is the dog for having such an irresponsible owner. And the dog can't speak to defend itself.
No she wasn't shocked she was high
Plaintiff story is none sense
