Jury awards $16.6 million in "Hold your wee for a wii" wrongful death case
Readers of this blog may remember that I have been following the story behind the "hold your wee for a wii" radio contest which ended in a contestant's death from water intoxication. If you don't remember what this case was about, go here and here first.
Now comes the news that the trial is over and the jury has awarded $16.6 million to the family of the victim. Go here for the full story.
