NFL Heiress Goes on Drunken, Anti-Semitic Rampage

The very rich, seemingly very spoiled and apparently very racist daughter of ex-Washington Redskins owner Jack Kent Cooke was arrested yesterday following an altercation on New Year’s Eve. And we’re talking about one doozy of an altercation. According to TMZ, People Magazine and other outlets, the ugly incident took place at Caravaggio, a restaurant on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. It also took place on New Year’s Eve. Cooke was allegedly waiting in line to get her coat when she grew irritating, yelling at a 77-year old in front of her: “Hurry up, Jew. I got places to be.” In response, the woman’s son, Matthew Haberkorn, followed the 29-year old Cooke outside and confronted her about this inappropriate comment. And Cooke stood quietly, listened to the man and apologized. Just kidding! She reportedly attacked Haberkorn with her glass purse, opening up two huge wounds on his face. There’s actually video of the beating, in which you can hear Matthew say “She just f*cking hit me!” Cooke fires back: “You called me a f-cking bitch. You called me a cunt.” And then Matthew again: “You called me a f-cking Jew.” Haberkorn also shared two photos of his lacerations on social media shortly after everything went down. Cooke and her boyfriend eventually left the scene, but authorities later arrested her for felony assault. In addition to the physical harm caused to Haberkorn’s head, his attorney says the normally “mellow Californian” is “very distressed.” Translation: he will be filing a major lawsuit against the heiress. “The damage was what you saw in the photo, but it goes beyond that,” Andrew T. Miltenberg tells People Magazine. The lawyer adds that Haberkorn intends to press charges and sue Cooke civilly for what they allege was a hate crime and civil rights violation. Jack Kent Cooke passed away in April of 1997 after having owned the Redskins and, at other times, the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Kings. He left behind about $1 billion in assets, according to the Washington Post. However, he only provided his daughter with a $50,000 annual stipend, prompting her to file a lawsuit against her father’s estate in 2007 because she wanted more money each year. She sounds like a real peach.

Pay Day Plucked Away: Judge Tosses $417M From Woman Claiming Baby Powder Gave Her Ovarian Cancer

Getty Images $417 Million Award Thrown Out In Baby Powder Case A judge on Friday tossed out a $417 million jury award to a woman who claimed she developed ovarian cancer by using Johnson & Johnson talc-based baby powder for feminine hygiene. Eva Echeverria alleged Johnson & Johnson failed to adequately warn consumers about talcum powder’s potential cancer risks–she used the company’s baby powder on a daily basis beginning in the 1950s until 2016 and was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2007, according to court papers. Echeverria developed ovarian cancer as a “proximate result of the unreasonably dangerous and defective nature of talcum powder,” she said in her lawsuit. Though she before was decided a winner in the case and was to be awarded $417 Million, but now Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Maren Nelson granted Johnson & Johnson’s request for a new trial. The company sayid there were errors and jury misconduct in the previous trial that ended with the award two months ago. Nelson also ruled that there wasn’t convincing evidence that Johnson & Johnson acted with malice and the award for damages was excessive. The decision will be appealed even though Echeverria has passed away, said her attorney, Mark Robinson Jr. Her attorney contended that documents showed that Johnson & Johnson knew about the risks of talc and ovarian cancer for three decades. “Ovarian cancer is a devastating disease — but it is not caused by the cosmetic-grade talc we have used in Johnson’s Baby Powder for decades. The science is clear and we will continue to defend the safety of Johnson’s Baby Powder as we prepare for additional trials in the U.S.,” a spokeswoman for Johnson & Johnson Carol Goodrich said in a statement. Similar allegations have led to hundreds of lawsuits against the New Jersey-based company. Jury awards against the company so far have totaled hundreds of millions of dollars. Another similar case on Tuesday resulted in a Missouri court throwing out a $72 million award to the family of an Alabama woman who has died, ruling that the state wasn’t the proper jurisdiction for such a case. The court cited a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in June that placed limits on where injury lawsuits could be filed, saying state courts cannot hear claims against companies not based in the state where alleged injuries occurred.
