Another day another mass shooting, once again real close to home.

YouTube HQ in San Bruno reporting an active shooter and an unconfirmed 37 casualties taken in to bay area hospitals

Arm the clerical staff, amiright.

As far as I've seen, the shooter is the only casualty and only a few people were harmed.

It's a female shooter too. Pretty rare.

Yeah I'm seeing now female shooter dead from self inflicted, shot her bf (in critical), and two other female victims (1 serious, 1 fair). Also seeing reports of the shooter wearing a headscarf, so.... great.

Despite the lack of casualties guns and PMS are a scary mix. It’s a good thing women are incompetent.

It's always nice to see women confidently participating in typically male activities. You go, girl!

At least it wouldn't have taken long to get that one on YouTube.

Attorneys can switch sides mid-settlement?

Quote:
"Defendant Bill O'Reilly asks the Court to resolve a dispute by relying on the very Agreements he seeks to shield from public view," judge Batts wrote.

The judge's ruling means that certain terms of the settlements are coming to light for the first time. A motion filed Wednesday by Neil Mullin and Nancy Erika Smith, the attorneys representing the three plaintiffs, claims that the settlement reached with Andrea Mackris, a former Fox News producer who filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against O'Reilly in 2004, required her to "lie -- even in legal proceedings or under oath -- if any evidence becomes public, by calling evidence 'counterfeit' or 'forgeries.'"

The potential penalties etched in the settlements were particularly onerous. If Mackris goes public about the details of the settlement, the agreement stated that she "shall return all sums paid under this Agreement, forfeit any future payments due under this Agreement, disgorge to O'Reilly the value of any benefit earned or received as a result of such disclosure, and pay to O'Reilly all reasonable attorney's fees and costs incurred by O'Reilly in attempting to enforce this Agreement."

The filing asserts that Mackris' attorney, Benedict Morelli, switched sides and agreed to become O'Reilly's lawyer while negotiating the agreement.

"This profoundly unethical conflict left Ms. Mackris virtually without legal counsel," the filing said. Morelli did not respond to a request for comment.
