An Inclusive Litany

5/31/93

When Richard Osbourn of Casper, Wyoming, bought the adult video "Belle of the Ball," he expected to see the main advertised attraction, Busty Belle, who instead only made a cameo appearance. Rather than settle for a refund of the cost of the video, Osbourn filed a lawsuit against Emporium Videos, claiming that it duped him into buying the video. He is demanding reimbursement of the $29.95 he spent on the video and $55.79 in medical costs he incurred when the "stress and strain of being ripped off" brought on an asthma attack. And, as "compensation for suffering," he'd like an additional $50,000.
