CALGARY — A woman who put needles into food at a Calgary grocery store is now suing the store for defamation.

After she was banned from a Calgary Co-op in 2010 for shoplifting, Tatyana Granada returned to the store and concealed pins, nails and needles into bakery and dairy products.

Why is this thing not in jail?

[Huskrrrr]

Not satire?

[GeronL]

Why are these stupid lawsuits even allowed in court?

[Bob]

Her husband got the “honor killing” thing all wrong. He was supposed to kill his wife, not himself. Infidels just don’t get islam.

[Lazamataz]

Kill her, by forcing needles down her throat.

[hal ogen]

Her husband committed suicide. One wonders if living with this tatyana fool had anything to do with that.

Why is this thing not in jail?

She was convicted in 2012, went to prison, and was released in March of this year.

"... Granada is suing the company for $8 million, alleging that it is responsible for the shame and loss of family honour her husband incurred, which she says eventually led to his suicide... Granada, who is representing herself, says she has no income and is a widow left to raise her two children on her own."

She can go put an ad on Craigslist offering to blow dogs for nickels.

The store should countersue her for 10X the amount she is trying to extort.

Give her another three years in the pen to think of a new strategy.

This is one of those cases that cries out for a return of Drawing and Quartering.

Send her back to Latvia.

3 years in prison is a hefty sentence in the Canadian court system.

[Jack Hydrazine]

Why not just stick her with needles instead?

Not my dog! He needs someone he can take home to Mother!

A midget with the filing fee could sue the city for building the sidewalks to close to his bottom.
She’ll be taken out on motion to dismiss for failure to state a cause upon which relief can be granted and she’s likely judgment-proof, so seeking attorney fees is a waste of time.
She may need professional help and a long-sleeved sportcoat.

[Robwin]

Granada, who is representing herself, says she has no income and is a widow left to raise her two children on her own.

I strongly recommend getting those two kids out of that home.
