On 11/5/13, Judge Thomas R. Campbell of the Adams County Court of Common Pleas approved a $300,000.00 settlement for an Adams County pit bull attack victim. Attorney Thomas J. Newell was hired by the parents of the 6 year-old victim after the 4/13/11 unprovoked pit bull mauling. The 6 year-old had gone next door to play with some friends when their pit bull bit off a portion of the right side of her nose.

One more surgery will be needed in 3-4 years. Psychological counseling helped the young dog attack victim get over her emotional wounds.
