Possibly in an attempt to justify their bloated budget, New Castle, Colorado SWAT team raided a home in the middle of the night because of a report that a kid bumped his head. When he was taken to the hospital, the doctor recommended that the kid continue his parents treatment and drink water, take a tylenol and put ice on the bruise. Garfield County Department of Social Services caseworkers admitted the injury may not have been as severe as they claimed to the judge when seeking the order for treatment.

Yet another man successfully sued the man who stole his wife under the "alienation of affection" law that is still on the books in progressive Mississippi. The take? $750,000. The defendant appealled the decision all the way to the Supreme Court...and lost.
