Woman sues over spilled McDonald's hot chocolate
Northlake mother claims daughter was burned
COOK COUNTY, Ill. - Vicki LaRocco of Northlake is suing McDonald's, claiming her daughter was seriously burned last year when a hot chocolate she ordered spilled and seriously burned her leg.
The lawsuit, filed in Cook County Circuit Court, claims LaRocco purchased the hot chocolate for her daughter on April 28, 2009 at a McDonald's drive-through window in Schiller Park, the lid of the cup was improperly secured and the beverage spilled onto her daughter, causing "severe pain and scarring."
An elderly woman was awarded over $2 million in 1994, after suing McDonald's for burns she suffered when coffee she bought at a drive-through window spilled in her lap. A judge later reduced that amount.
McDonald's spokeswoman Danya Proud declined to comment on the current lawsuit, "At this time, these are just allegations."

I think it's justified. I have been a victim of what I considered racism. I am pretty sure that they use loose lids as a professional f*ck you. It also pisses me off. I would sue for hospital bills and lost future opportunities as a girl. Scars are not cool on a woman like they are on a guy.
