    They are responsible. Should have never lifted the wind restriction. He got out and waited, to die. Absolutely horrifying to imagine. My sympathy and prayers to his family.

    There will probably be a settlement, but she should go to a jury trial. A good jury could double or triple that wrongful death penalty.
