Georgia man’s death during threesome nets his family $3M in trial

[MountainMan]

The family of a Georgia man who died when his heart couldn’t take a three-way sex romp was awarded a hefty $3 million payout by a jury, according to reports.

William Martinez’s estate was originally seeking $5 million in a medical malpractice case that claimed a cardiologist failed to warn the 31-year-old to stay away from physical activity. While Gwinnett County jurors sided with the family Tuesday, they agreed to a lesser amount after finding Martinez was 40% liable for his own death, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Wednesday.

Can any of our regular libs please explain to the rest of the board why your party and ideology refuses to engage in tort reform again? This story right here is the perfect example of why we need it.

Wow, I think a statute of limitations would be necessary here. I mean he's 31, did he complain of heart problems, was he having chest pains, or on any heart medication?

Sigh

Martinez, a husband and father of two, was engaged in a threesome with a friend and another woman who was not his wife, according to the newspaper. He died March 12, 2009.

The week before, Martinez reportedly went to the CardioVascular Group in Lawrenceville, Ga., complaining of chest pains that shot up his arm, said CBS affiliate WAOK in Atlanta.

A test was scheduled for eight days later, but the day before the test he decided to engage in the extramarital hanky panky, according to reports.

I guess that he couldn't wait for the stress test and had to conduct his own.

What strikes me as odd is that the symptoms should have warranted admission to a hospital. Chest pains that shoot up your arm are a sign of a heart attack.
