A resident of Missouri reached a legal settlement with GEICO this week, but it wasn’t because of a car crash — it was over a car smash!
In February 2021, a woman known only as M.O. submitted a petition to the insurance giant insisting they owed her big time. The anonymous filer said that she contracted an STD inside her partner’s car — a car that was covered by GEICO.
Yep, you read that right! She submitted a claim to a car insurance company because she had sex in the backseat of a car and contracted an STD! Talk about “bumper to bumper coverage”!
The anonymous woman alleged that the insurance policy “provided coverage for her injuries and losses” — and she suffered some injuries and losses in the car! She said her partner failed to disclose their sexual history which lead to her contracting Human Papilloma Virus. We’d certainly call getting HPV an injury.

She offered to settle the claim for $1 million, but GEICO denied coverage and refused the offer. But the claim was sent directly to the Missouri Court of Appeals. And the settler agreed with the woman’s case!
In the filing, the arbitrator stated that there had been sexual acts in the insured vehicle that “directly caused, or directly contributed to cause” the plaintiff’s HPV contraction — and that WAS covered under the insurance policy! Wow!

K.J. Yossman Ed Sheeran has scored a second victory in his recent copyright trial after a British judge awarded the singer over $1.1 million in costs.The sum represents approximately 90% of Sheeran’s legal bill.Explaining his decision to award Sheeran such substantial costs, Judge Antony Zacaroli wrote in his judgment: “The starting point is to identify the winners and losers in the action because the general rule is that the unsuccessful party pays the costs of the successful party… There is no dispute as to this: [Sheeran] undoubtedly won and won on every substantial point.”In April, Judge Zacaroli ruled that Sheeran had not plagiarised a 2015 song titled “Oh Why” by Sami Chokri in his hit “Shape of You.” Sheeran co-wrote “Shape of You” alongside Snow Patrol singer Johnny McDaid and producer Steve Mac (during the trial he used his legal name of Steven McCutcheon), who were co-claimants in the action.Chokri’s legal team had argued that, through a publicity campaign and mutual friends including SBTV founder Jamal Edwards (who unexpectedly died shortly before the trial), Sheeran had had the opportunity to listen to – and plagiarize – Chokri’s track.

appeared in the film “Buddy” with actor Alan Cumming was found alive last week after his former owner faked his death to avoid having him confiscated by PETA, according to Rolling Stone.Tonka’s owner, Tonia Haddix, had previously claimed that he had passed away from heart failure and that she cremated him in a fire pit, the outlet reported.She fabricated the story after PETA sounded the alarm about dire conditions at her Missouri animal sanctuary and demanded its closure, according to the report.The facility eventually went defunct, but Haddix claimed Tonka was no more.PETA didn’t buy her story and joined Cumming in offering a $20,000 for information leading to Tonka’s shrouded whereabouts.“During the months we filmed together, baby Tonka and I became good friends, playing and grooming each other and just generally larking about,” Cumming said in an April statement.The aging primate was eventually located in a small room on a property owned by Haddix, who conceded that she had lied about his death, Rolling Stone said.Tonka, 38, has now been placed in a sprawling Florida sanctuary, PETA said this week.Cumming was elated by his old pal’s new lease on life.“I’m dancing a jig that PETA has rescued Tonka from the woman who locked him away alone in a basement and lied about it,” he said, according to PETA. “The thought of Tonka being able to wander free and happy at Save the Chimps’ lush, spacious sanctuary for the rest of his life has me singing a happy song.”Haddix told Rolling Stone that she expects legal consequences.“I’m sure that there’ll be some jail time in this,” she said.
