I have one and only one Google News Alert set on my Google account. It is for Kim Richards and I set it when she was getting into trouble with the law. I’ve never taken it off, mostly because I keep forgetting. Lately there as been an influx in Kim Richards alerts so I thought I would share some of them. Kim is still on probation. On March 10, 2017, Richards went before Commissioner Jane Godfrey for yet another probation modification hearing. At that time her probation was modified from 30 hours of community labor to 450 community service hours. Godfrey told her if the hours weren’t completed at Midnight Mission by September 7th she could face jail time. Well guess what happened on September 7th? Come on, guess!
Did you guess that her attorney went to court and told Godfrey she had completed only 180 of the 450 hours? Because that is what happened. That averages out to about an hour a day. That leaves her 270 hours to complete in three months. I have a few issues with this. I feel like Kim should have to appear in court before the judge and explain herself in person. I do not think that happened. Also, the judge assigned her to Midnight Mission. I believe that she took it upon herself to do her community service at Skydog Sanctuary, a mustang rescue. She started there in Mid-August of 2016 before her terms were modified. It’s unclear if she is in fact allowed to pet mustangs rather than work at the mission but that is the appearance that Kim has given to the press. There is a huge difference between those two options. She is due back before Commissioner Godfrey on December 19th.
There are also open cases remaining involving Kingsley. Kay Rozario, the older friend of the family that Kingsley attacked was just granted an increase in damages resulting from that dog bite. According to the plaintiff’s filing, in March of 2014, while a guest in Richards home, “Kay Rozario was in Defendant Richards’ bedroom talking to Defendant Richards who was lying on the bed next to the dog. All of the sudden and without provocation, the dog jumped up from the bed, moved across it and attacked and bit Kay Rozario, causing severe injuries to her left hand, arm and back. As the dog was attacking and biting Kay Rozario, she fell backwards onto the floor. Bleeding profusely from her wounds, as she was being attacked and bitten, Kay Rozario screamed.” To read all the details of the case click here. She was awarded $8,083. 53 in general damages.
In June of 2016, Rozario, who was 80 years old at the time of the dog bite and claims she has permanent injuries as a result of the vicious attack by the pit bull. The appeals court agreed with Rozario and her award was increased by $51,000 to $59,083.53. Rozario had asked for 1.25 million in damages in her initial motion.
As of July 2016, two years after Kim claimed that Kingsley had been sent of to a trainer, or taken off somewhere, Kingsley was still attacking people and Kim was still covering it up. Including this young lady who was bit in her vagina!!! If you miss that story, the cover-up allegations were deeply disturbing.
I’m not sure justice is being served either criminally or civilly when it comes to Kim Richards. Do you think she has come to terms with the consequences of her actions?
Kim has had more opportunities and chances than most people ever get in their lives and continues to piss it all away.
I wish I could like her but I just don’t. Obviously the court system adores her as she’s never punished for her transgressions.
They seriously
Need to put a stop to this. This women has and continues to have a blatant disregard for not just the law, but for other people. This is repulsive and it’s one of
The reason people have such disgust for the justice system.
And this is the type of incident that justified me ignoring jury duty this time…sick of it.
I wish you would pick a name and settle in with us here. Love your opinions and it would make it better for the clan to know who you are. That said. You are too smart to cop out on jury duty. I for one want you on jury.
Why is that dog still alive? I love animals but that dog is clearly a menace to most every living thing. Kim keeps getting a slap on the hand because who knows why. She needs to be treated like Ms. Any Woman and not pampered. It is disheartening and disgusting how she plays the system. She should complete her service to the community and comply with the law. Period ,end of discussion!
Do you have anything on her sobriety? I’m hoping she’s at least been able to stay sober-ish.
The fact that she thinks she is special and should be allowed to pet ponies all day rather than do some a actual work is EXACTLY the reason her life continues to be a mess. She takes zero responsibility for her actions and expects special treatment. Why can’t she work at the Mission? She should be grateful she didn’t get jail time or made to pick up garbage on the side of the road. I can’t believe poor Kingsley hasn’t been put down! 3 vicious attacks? I thought there were strict laws for vicious dogs? Maybe Kathy is paying someone off?
Maybe the time has come for her to face up to the charges and make a serious effort to change her ways!
Her sisters have tried to help her… that hasn’t gone well. I truly hope she goes to rehab and decides what
is best for her family!
What is wrong with the commenters in here? Kim is a STAR, a celebrity, a special person that is above the everyday person. Kim should never have to set one of her beautiful feet into a real life mission with those type of druggies and alcoholics. She isn’t one of them. They might smell.
LA courts are strange with celebrities, they just are, always have been. Having good attorneys helps also. Most California courts are not like that.
PS when you go back to most courts on any type of follow up with alcohol or a drug charge in your history, judges will look at the person and require a on the spot test to see if the person is clean. I’ve seen judges do that at the slightest hint the person might not be clean.
Maybe Kim’s attorneys have her avoid court for that reason also. I don’t know if LA courts do that.
I was a advocate for a group that assisted women with children to find alternative living choices other than prison. We could speak for the person but mostly it was to keep the client from scoring drugs or drinking. We did not say that but we were babysitters for adults.
It’s all such bullshit. When she didn’t have the required hours (yet again) she should have been hauled down to jail. It’s ridiculous she thinks she’s entitled to change at whim the required community service to play with horses. I second what you said TT, there’s a WORLD of difference between servicing people at the mission vs hanging out with horses (which is her hobby anyway-she hardly being penalized).
The court system continues to set a bad example each time they let her off. I feel horrible for Kay Rozario, what Kim put her through is disgusting. $59k is peanuts! She tried to cover-up what happened and then smeared the woman’s name claiming she was using her for money! Kim always thinks the world owes her something. How dare Kay sue for damages. No accountability for the pain and suffering her dog caused-yet again. This was an old family friend, same with the makeup artist who was bit. This is how callously and selfishly she treats friends and people who work for her. She an awful person.
I don’t care what type of community service she does as long as Kim is not driving. She is a danger to herself and others.
Who’s paying her legal bills? Mauricio? Kathy? They must be mounting up by now.
That aside, anyone with a SHRED of decency would be horrified that their dog had attacked one person. For Kim to allow Kingsley to attack again beggars belief. A pit bull could and has mauled people to death.This speaks of an indulged individual with a huge sense of entitlement.
Honestly, that dog would probably have to badly injure Kim or one of her own children for her to see sense. She doesn’t care if it’s an old family friend or, say, her own niece. Unf**king believable.
All I want for Christmas is Kim Richards not showing up on RHOBH next season.
Wasn’t that girl attacked by Kingsley at Kyles house? Kyle could be sued too. Maybe she is. I just can’t with these two anymore.
TT hope all is well with you today.
Good everyone knew was being sarcastic in above post.
Jasmine, I agree about being horrified and add taking responsibility for dogs action. My pit would had been put down by me. To force Kay Rosario to go to court for medical bills should be embarrassing for Kim’s family.
We had a cute pit bull puppy dropped off on us, we live semi rural. Years ago, I gave the boys time to find it a home or I was taking it to the shelter, I had no clue to its parentage. Well he lived here 10 years, I told Vets office if it showed aggression to them I wanted it put down, 1sr human bite Pit was done. We took precautions but he was mostly mellow. I did see the pit bull attitude in him. To treat these dogs with excuses is wrong.
Personally it should be a crime to breed these dogs other than by a professional.
Hope Kay is paid in full with interest and penalties soon.
Kim has earned jail time plus Mission service hours. Kim changing her assigned location is a failure to follow the judges order. I was surprised to read the judge did not seem to care. L.A. county judicial pattern w/celebrities.
Can Kim just be sentenced to jail already? She needs a wakeup call.
