The family of Aurora, Colorado theater shooting victim Jessica Ghawi, 24, is not entitled to cash in on their daughter's murder by suing four ammunition dealers from which James Holmes purchased ammo, a federal judge has ruled. To the contrary, the judge ordered them to pay attorney's fees to the victims of their frivolous lawsuit to the tune of over $200,000. NBC Bay Area reports: Federal Judge Richard P. Matsch [...] dismissed the case [they filed] calling it an act made for “political purposes” meant to “propagandize the public and stigmatize the defendants.” That their daughter was murdered is a terrible tragedy, but it was James Holmes, not "they", i.e. the ammo dealers, who took their daughter's life. These ammunition dealers are no more to blame for his murders than the car dealer who sold him the car he used. |
