Sue first ask questions later

The culture of sue first ask questions later gets on my nerves, as I wrote before here, and yesterday I read of a case that left me in disbelief

Michael Wade of Execupundit points us to the recent lawsuit filed by the father of the late Josh Hancock (of St Louis Cardinals MLB fame) in the wake of the 29 year olds suicide. The Cardinals pitcher decided the way he wanted to leave this mortal coil was to... drink drive, well over the speed limit, while on a mobile phone AND without wearing a seatbelt (tut tut) and plow into a tow truck parked at the roadside.

His father has now filed a lawsuit in St. Louis against:

1. the restaurant where Hancock was drinking,


2. the manager of said restaurant, the tow truck driver,


3. the towing company,


4. and the driver of the stalled vehicle that the tow truck was assisting.
