Yeah, he looks great. Two black eyes, arm in a sling, and none of that shows his thigh/groin area and whether or not it’s healed from the dog attack.

Amazing what time can do after this:

Time and hospital and medical care that he decided not to pay for. Gotta save his funds for the lawyer expenses.

Lawyer expenses for his defense and also to file a suit as plaintiff against the town authorities, including the policemen who probably saved the life of LK.

Wow, talk about twisting.

Do you know for a fact that Michael ever got his medical bills? He was … um… this seems so obvious but I will say it anyway… in custody.

Yeah, can you actually imagine a horse person on an Internet forum actually having a name that refers to the fact they show “cutting” horses? See, it is a team efforts between the horse and rider to “cut”! Do you know what lengths I need to go to to keep the knives or anything sharp away from these darn horses?

Did you know these horses also have more than one national association dedicated to keeping these horse’s rights to cut?

Ya know… I have a coming 5 year old mare… and if she had fingers, thumbs, and access to anything sharp…

I have no doubts she would be a “cutter.”

Frankly, I bet her number one target would be this OTHER mare I have. Poor girl. She’s like a hunted little animal.

Mares can be so darn mean.

Not men today, you’d be surprised how many are leeching off women out there

You must know a different type of man than I typically encounter.

Isn’t it a possibility that the medical bills suit was dropped because arrangements were made for payment?

Wow. So, you know what MB has decided. Where you able to learn this by being there? You saw whether or not he had insurance and whether or not claims were denied? Any insight on why the hospital “decided” to let the collection suit close without taking any action? Would that insight, if any, be derived from personal knowledge or more movies in your head?

@CurrentlyHorseless

Honestly, by showing up, the police probably saved Michael’s life too, but don’t let that concern you at all.

[trubandloki]

That is a very logical answer. Not something someone like @CurrentlyHorseless would ever think of.

@eggbutt

I love that “her beau” forgot “her” wallet! Such a pathetic kept man with no means of support other than being her whatever! Most men I know would cringe at being kept like that! Damn!

I’m guessing most men you know probably have more viable employment options.

Tsk tsk now. Surely you cannot miss the laboriously repeated point that MB is a terrible person… and obviously tried to screw the hospital out of money… all while he was in jail and his affairs were in turmoil and getting sorted out. NO other comment that might make sense will suffice… /s

100% - All of this

Medical bills get disputed and go to collections all the time, for many many different reasons.

If we don’t know what actually happened with MB’s bills, it seems inappropriate to accuse him of intentionally not paying them.

[trubandloki]

I have a mare just like what you describe! They are so mean. Thank goodness they do not have fingers and thumbs.

What if the proof comes out in the civil trial that things didn’t go down as testified to in the criminal trial? What if video is found that proves differently?

Could MB’s whole charges and NGRI be dismissed? Would others then be subject to prosecution?

Wouldn’t that be a twist in this saga

@trubandloki

I wonder if PopPopRider (Jonathan Kanarek - @Inigo-montoya) and MaMaRider (Kirby Kanarek - @Seeker1) are visiting Florida so Kirby can pick up the transcripts from Lauren Kanarek to answer that ignored subpoena?
They did not want to risk just mailing them.

Or perhaps they are there to help prepare LK for her Zoom deposition. Or am I being too hopeful to think that it might actually take place without more delay tactics and games of hide and seek?

[Virginia_Horse_Mom]

You’re too hopeful.

I bet she never sits for that deposition.

This gets my vote. They haven’t done anything to move LK’s suit forward, the one that SHE brought to the court. Why would they change now?

[trubandloki]

@DownYonder, I would like to think that might happen and that might be the case but I am with VHM on this, I think you are too hopeful and that is wishful thinking.

The BSC #1 mare here is now seperated from the rest of the herd… and lives with a slightly less opinionated sod of a mare in their own paddock. That way the two of them can snark at each other and spare everyone else their impressive talents - and the bite marks, kick marks and stress.

Surprisingly enough, when BSC #1 was in foal and then had a filly at heel, she was the sweetest girl ever. Easy to catch, extremely friendly, no issues with anything! She is scheduled to be bred this spring and I am sure the herd shares my expectations of a peaceful 17 months or so after that… IF she catches.

I don’t know the answer, but when I watched Legally Blonde again the other day, I noticed the part at the end when in the space of about 30 seconds, the judge dismissed the charges against the suspect, and then had one of the witnesses arrested. Wouldn’t that be fabulous?

I don’t know how accurate it was, but still. Fun to see.

I think it would come down to the weight of the proof.

An actual, unedited video that shows the incident happened in a different manner than any of the versions we’ve heard or read to date might make a difference.

Two less than credible witnesses telling yet a different version under oath again wouldn’t matter at all other than to the civil trial itself (if it happens).
