Edited to add, in her defense, it was her favorite shirt.

OK, I can't let this go. I tried.
Only sleazy lawyers use words in this manner...
Hayes smeared "boiling hot, greasy french fries" on his face, said State's Attorney Douglas F. Gansler.
"The boy was scared to death," Gansler said. "It is incomprehensible to think that an adult would attack a child of any age in such a manner."
After the assault, the boy's eyes were swollen, Gansler said. Although he suffered no serious physical injuries, "we don't know what kind of emotional and psychological damage he's had," Gansler said.
OK, if getting french fries rubbed in your face causes psychological damage, this kid's going to have a hell of a tough life on the playground.
Boiling hot greasy french fries - won't McDonald's object to their product being portrayed this way?
