Well she did say they could have put the pipe around his property from the start but instead opted to get him to court implying they were sure they would win the legal mumbo jumbo or get him to the point where he goes bankrupt one trial after the other other, all of course to the tax payers expense, and then steal his land. And when they lost she was infuriated they couldn't take his land like they have so many times before :)
This guy is my hero
it sounds like his land is a large ranch that will cost a fortune to run the pipe around, so if there is a pipe under your land then your land is stolen?
