This whole thing is just pathetic.
I'll lose all faith in humanity (what little is left anyways) if the motorist wins this case.
Not just because it is downright stupid but because this sets an absolutely horrible precedent for future court cases.
When does this bullshit stop? If she can sue for emotional damages as the result of killing the kid....then the parents should be able to sue her for the emotional damage caused by having to go through this legal BS after losing their kid.
Whats the difference? It's all bullshit. Courts should not be an avenue for people to help support their personal issues. That is what shrinks are for.
As more and more crap like this gets into courts our legal system becomes more and more of a joke.
Criminals get slapped on the wrists, victims have less rights than criminals and you can get sued for millions over hurt feelings.
You better just stay in your house because the next time you go outside you might get sued into oblivion over nothing.
It's just straight up retarded and if anyone honestly supports this shit they clearly were dropped on their head too many times as a kid.
Maybe you should sue your mother for that?
