As scary as it sounds, there are certain people that love being victims and eye-witnesses. Some people will get on the stand and greatly exaggerate all sorts of things, because it makes them feel important. Others like being a victim because of the attention and sympathy that it brings them. I remember one woman that came into court and she was sobbing and wailing -- as if her child had died -- because some kids went skateboarding in her pool (which was empty). She kept going on and on about how her "security was violated" and "she'll never be able to live there." She then asked for over $100k in damages (as restitution) because of supposed damage the skateboarding caused to the pool.
