Scalded Woman Gets Millions in Lawsuit
by Jack Lee
Remember the lady that was awarded millions after spilling hot coffee in her lap? Well, here's the rest of the story the media didn't tell you. As it turns out McDonalds was aware that the bottoms of their coffee cups had a high potential to melt out with the extremely hot temperatures they felt customers wanted. Changing the cups to a safer type would be really costly and they made a corporate decision to deal with the harm from a potential lawsuit rather than change the cups. The lady that was scalded suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns to her vaginal area when the bottom melted out of her coffee cup and now you know why she got the big award.
