From CNN.com - Breaking News, U.S., World, Weather, Entertainment & Video News

The teen accused of masterminding a videotaped "animalistic" attack against a fellow teenage classmate is out on bond, and she has celebrity talk show host Dr. Phil McGraw to thank for it, according to a bail bondsman.The bondsman told media gathered at a Polk County jail Friday that Dr. Phil posted Mercedes Nichols' $30,000 bond.When Nichols was released from jail, a man arrived and idenfitied himself as a Dr. Phil producer and ordered local media to leave the area because the Dr. Phil Show had exclusive rights to the story, according to reporters on scene.The man refused to comment about why Dr. Phil would help someone accused of such a violent crime leave jail, and he would not confirm if Dr. Phil paid for her bond.

One more reason I can't stand this man.

The case of the 8 Florida teens that were arrested for beating down a teenager and videotaping it has caught the attention of Dr. Phil. He must be stopped! TMZ reports that Dr. Phil's show allegedly paid the $30,000 bond of Mercades Nichols. Mercades was reportedly the ring leader and her grandmother recently told reporters that she couldn't afford her bond. Most of the other teens were also released on bond this Friday night.
A dude from the Dr. Phil show escorted Mercades out of jail last night. He also told reporters to step off, because Dr. Phil had the exclusive rights to the story.


Dr. Phil issued this statement to TMZ and basically blamed it on his staff:
"We have helped guests and potential guests in the past when they need financial assistance to come on the show - assisting with clothing allowance, lost wages, accommodations, travel and necessities. In this case, certain staff members went beyond our guidelines (re: the bail being paid). These staff members have been spoken to and our policies reiterated. In addition, we have decided not to go forward with the story as our guidelines have been compromised."


Oprah has created a monster! A monster that won't even accept responsibility for his own stupidity. Dr. Phil needs serious help. He should check into "Celebrity Rehab" for his attention whore disorder. Only Dr. Drew can save him.

Oprah is a piece of shit. she's got a knack for shoving these new people on the American public ,, then they go apeshit. Fuck Dr Phil for bailing this useless piece of shit out of jail. whether the producer did it or he did it, Phil is the boss, he paid for it. if he gets the stupid ass beater on his show, i'll really be pissed.

[Chimera]

I just read he made 91 million last year! How, how? Slimeball.

[Folieadeux]

He has gone too far. Paying bond for someone who has shown they are a danger to society?

F-ckhead!

What this man won't do for publicity.

What's the big deal about him anyway? I find his 'advice' pretty common sensical.
