The lawsuit alleges the following facts:
The injuries and death of Mary Heather Spencer were proximately caused by the negligent and grossly negligent acts of Defendants. Such acts of negligence and gross negligence, and the death of Mary Heather Spencer, occurred in Hinds County, Mississippi.....
Prior to September 10, 2007, Defendant Robbie Bell knew or should have known that Defendant George Bell, I11 had severe personal and emotional problems, including, but not limited to, diagnosed substance abuse disorders and addictions, and tendencies toward physical violence towards females, specifically, Mary Heather Spencer, deceased......
During the late evening hours of September 10,2007, and or early morning
hours of September 11, 2007, while Defendant Robbie Bell, George Bell, 111, and Mary
Heather Spencer were present, Defendant George Bell, Ill became enraged, and did violence
to the person of Mary Heather Spencer. Such violence inflicted severe, but survivable
injuries upon the person of Mary Heather Spencer. Subsequently, Mary Heather Spencer died
as a result of the failure to receive treatment for the injuries sustained as a result.....
Defendant Robbie Bell failed to act in any manner to enable such assistance or medical treatment, and, instead, did fail to provide any assistance to Mary Heather Spencer.
12. Specifically, Defendant Robbie Bell was present in the residence, with knowledge of the violence that had occurred, and had actual and or constructive knowledge of Mary Heather Spencer's condition, subsequent to the initial injuries to Mary Heather Spencer, and prior to Mary Heather Spencer's death
....."

The lawsuit charges the defendants with the following counts:
Count I: Negligence and Gross Negligence
Count II: Negligence Misrepresentation
Count III: Negligent Infliction of Emotional Distress
Count IV: Punitive and Exemplary Damages

Damages are not specified. Instead, the plaintiff "demands judgment of and from Defendants, jointly and severally, in an amount within the jurisdictional limits of this Court, and punitive damages in an amount within the jurisdictional limits of this Court, sufficient to deter these Defendants and others similarly situated from like or similar conduct in the future; attorneys' fees, and all costs of this proceeding..."

... on September 10,2007 and/or September 11, 2007, Defendant Robbie Bell did negligently misrepresent to one or more persons matters and/or conditions of fact, andor failed to disclose material matters and conditions of fact, relative to the circumstances present at her residence on September 10, 2007 and/or September 11, 2007.

Do you think the LFP (Ladd Fraud Press) will ignore the actual civil trial too? I wonder if Robbie Bell sent in a contribution to the Chick Ball.

Who knows. I just want it to go to trial so the truth can come out. All of it: the police reports, autopsy, witness testimony, etc.

Tom, if you can't see what the problem is with naming Ms. Bell "most intriguing person" of 2007, then you really do have a problem.

Tom Head said...

The deleted comment you're replying to was a response to the second anonymous person. Your blog entry wasn't even about the JFP--it was about the civil lawsuit.

Why didn't those things come out in court the first time around?

Omg.....WTF is wrong with this judicial system? All the facts are there and they only have him in jail? Sheeeeeit....I say put the both of them to death. Tomhead...I personally think you need to go back to criminal justice school...cuz you obviously don't even remember what circumstantial evidence is all about. Such a shame when lawyers get paid a substantial amount from their clients for a crappy a** service they perfrom for their clients.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets.
