My mom has a saying - That's gods way of weeding out the dumb ones. Let's see these people are suing because there children, after being warned by a Trained Lifeguard that what they were doing is dangerous. Proceeded to STEAL a rowboat, and take it for a Joy ride.
No one forced them to do what they, they paid the ultimate price for there poor decision making.
That Said I am pissed that I pay 1.99$ in 911 tax a month on my cell phone bill that is suppose to go to teh cell phone location technology. If that money is going to differnt purposes then the State should be SUED for misappropriation of funds.
However, Hypothermia isn't immediate and it depends on water temp/ amount of clothes they had on/ and there age.. What was the water temp?? Assuming it was 45 degrees they had probably 20 to 25 minutes to survive if they huddled together and didn't thrash about. Even after there hearts stopped since the water was cold there chance for revival without brain damage increases. So saying they were dead when they hit the water is just not true.
