Does Family of Late Radio Contestant Have a Personal Injury Case?

Posted by Editor | Posted in Personal Injury News

The family of a radio contestant who died from ingesting huge amounts of water in an attempt to win a Nintendo Wii may have a personal injury case against the radio station.

Jennifer Strange died last Friday of water intoxication (hyponatremia), a fatal dilution of sodium in the blood, after participating in the radio contest for 107.9 FM “The End.” The morning show responsible for the contest has been indefinitely cancelled, and the General Manager of 107.9 FM said the station is waiting for more information on why the tragic event occurred.

While Strange and other contestants signed waivers, 107.9 FM could have responsibility for the death if the waiver did not state such a risk, according to one California personal injury attorney in an online story on KCRA.com.

It is unknown if the family of Strange will file a personal injury claim in the future.
