    Little Red Riding Hood today won a $12 million wrongful imprisonment suit against the state of Texas. Red was convicted of cohabiting with a wolf and for losing a grandparent. Her suit follows a US Supreme Court decision that Red was within her rights to declare herself a wolf and upheld her freedom to “pursue wolfish ways”. Several California universities are competing to enroll Red this fall for the upcoming school term. Red and The Big Bad Wolf remain separated. Red has stated, “Every time he burps, he reminds me of Grandma.”
