vandals parents to sue after death
Advertisements [?]
a 13yr old who was vandalizing LIRR property was killed late last week while crossing the tracks (where he shouldnt have been in the first place) as he raced home so he wouldnt be late for sabbath dinner. his parents are going to sue the LIRR and the city for his death saying that they didnt take enough measures to make sure people could not get on the tracks.


if i was on that jury, the parents would not get one thin dime. I feel bad that this kid died, but he died because of his own stupidity. He was committing acts of vandalism (and apparently had done so in the past). did the parents know where he was at? who bought the kid the spray paint (you have to be at least 18 to buy spray paint in NYC). maybe this will be a lesson for other would be vandals. when you go into a dangerous place, you take your life into your own hands.
