It looks like her single mother will be paying a $2,000 fine to the RIAA for her daughter's song-swapping, which they had thought was legal. Said Brianna: 'I am sorry for what I have done. I love music and don't want to hurt the artists I love.' What a relief this must be for the Rolling Stones."

    "It looks like the family of a Texas murder victim has rushed to settle with 12-year-old Timmy McGee, after serving him with a lawsuit on Monday. It looks like her single mother will be paying a $2,000 fine to the family for her son's cold-blooded killing, which he had thought was legal. Said Timmy: 'I am sorry for what I have done. I love humans and don't want to hurt the people I love.' What a relief this must be for families of murder victims everywhere."
