The suspect named in the personal injury lawsuit will spend between 6 and 12 years behind bars.
The parents of a 7-year-old girl who lost her life in 2010 at the hands of a drunk driver were recently told that they would be receiving $15.6 million as part of a settlement in a personal injury lawsuit. The wrongful death complaint was filed against the intoxicated driver and a restaurant called?Hofbrauhaus?where he had been drinking. In addition to paying the family the money set forth in the agreement, the German-style eatery has also pledged to make changes to its policy in an effort reduce the number of patrons who consume alcohol and get behind the wheel.
According to news sources like the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the victim was in the backseat of her mother's vehicle as she drove to pick up her spouse on December 4. The?Toyota Camry was hit by a Ford Mustang in Pittsburgh's South Side neighborhood and the impact killed the child instantly. At the time of the incident, the girl's mother was pregnant. She also?suffered injuries, which included a miscarriage and a broken pelvis.
The driver, who was sentenced to six to 12 years behind bars, purportedly drank more than six liters of beer and consumed several shots of hard liquor over four hours. While still inside the restaurant, he vomited on a table and was asked to leave. However, security permitted him to get into his vehicle and drive away. His blood-alcohol level was more than two times Pennsylvania's legal limit.
