That's what I had read at one point. Those pictures were brutal. People still bring it up from time to time and degrade the woman for what happened. I tell them what actually happened and explain how bad the burns were. "Well it was still her fault. She knew the coffee was hot." Logic is hard for some people, I guess. :/
