A Los Angeles county jury has found the socialite Rebecca Grossman and former MLB player Scott Erickson negligent in the deaths of two young brothers who were struck by Grossman’s vehicle in Westlake Village in September 2020.
Following an eight-week civil trial, the jury on Wednesday awarded $176m to the family of 11-year-old Mark Iskander and his eight-year-old brother, Jacob. The boys were crossing the street with a skateboard and inline skates when Grossman fatally hit them with her car.
Without seeing the transcripts, I'd bet that those sleazebags were still trying to blame the kids and their parents for the kids being killed, or anyone else they could think of.

The lawyers were blaming the city for trees being near the Pedestrian Crossing sign. That must mean if there is no sign that pedestrians cross there that is easy to see then anyone crossing the road is fair game. Like they would be reading all the signs while racing.
