The coverage of the verdict from the New-Sentinel website and the three local television stations has been interesting to see. The plaintiffs, Jack McElroy and his attorney Rick Hollow have been somber and respectful. The defendant’s attorney John Owings has been professional and respectful. On the other hand the other plaintiff attorney Herbert Moncier has been arrogant, boastful and joyous. Why? Because after filling 75 lawsuits against Knox County, he finally won one.

To celebrate let’s all go down to McDonald’s, place an order and then grab a piece of paper out of the manager’s hand.
