I saw it happen when I lived in Idaho back in the mid-'70s. I've lived in California for 57 of my 65 years. I've seen some crazy stuff. I've known kids in high school (in the '60s) whose parents made a living by suing people, even back then.
That's no lie. I live in a little community in Texas we have a online program called Neighborhood or something. One of the lady's from California who moved here got on line telling people how "we" have to stop the use of pesticides on the corn fields in the area. Someone asked her if she has talked to any local farmers and of course she hadnt. She was all about starting trouble where none existed.
