A Perfect Case Of F**k Around And Find Out

Assumed risk.

I've never heard that term, so looked it up 🙂

"Assumed risk", more commonly referred to as assumption of risk, is a legal doctrine in tort law that bars or reduces a plaintiff's ability to recover damages for injuries sustained if the defendant can prove that the plaintiff voluntarily and knowingly exposed themselves to the inherent dangers of a particular activity.

The case was thrown out and the bill for the damage to the charging machine of $30000 dollars was given to the family

Good. Very, very good. Very, very good for two reasons:
1. The judge punished the people who are actually to blame.
2. A criminal was taken off the streets without a penny of taxpayer dollars needing to be spent. Funerals often cost less than a year of time behind bars.

Instant karma is a bitch ! 😁
