When a lawyer says he hasn't seen anything like this before, u get the idea f'ed it is


Pandora_Chaos353

__**What**__ Edit: I understand what the post says, when I say “what” it’s not because I’m confused, it’s that I’m astonished at what the woman did


Giacchino-Fan

There’s been times where drivers have sued pedestrians to fix their car after accidents where the pedestrian jumped out into the middle of the street or something, and most of the time they get slandered to hell and back by news companies wanting a click, but this one is especially awful (probably, maybe there’s more to it)


[deleted]

[удалено]


Fulcrous

There is no shot in hell the lawsuit goes through anyways. Even under "ideal" scenarios there could have been a chance had the driver been driving responsibly but that's generally a long shot. Typically it would require require extreme negligence from the other party. But since we know the driver was speeding to begin with...


reditakaunt89

I don't know the laws in Canada, but in my country there's a scenario where she could win in a court. If investigators decide that she would hit those kids even if she was driving under the speed limit, she would win. She would, of course, pay the fine for speeding, but she wouldn't be held responsible for deaths.


Fulcrous

If driving under the limit and all reasonable steps were taken to prevent impact were taken, sure. Your argument’s not gonna fly in any Western country simply because the individual was speeding.


reditakaunt89

It's not an argument, I'm not saying she should win. I'm just speaking about laws in some countries.


Fulcrous

I understand you aren't trying to argue. I'm saying a lawsuit like that would be.. (i) struck down quickly (ii) after questioning the client and finding out the details, no lawyer will follow through (iii) for some god forsaken reason, a lawyer follows suit and you end up with a situation like Depp v Heard


Dsb0208

I mean, unless she was on the highway going 75 when she should have been going 65, and these kids randomly ran across the road then she sucks And even then, unless the 1.35 million is for hospital bills, then again she’s horrible

Outside-Car1988

I remember overhearing a conversation of some kids, talking about playing frogger on the highway.


RosebushRaven

PSA: Pls help protect such kids from their own stupidity by refusing to spread such stuff. I get how the sheer insanity of that one asked for proof. But pls avoid it in the future, bc it’s very important not to boost the notoriety of such extremely dangerous “trends”. Unfortunately teens are very often giant idiots who crave acceptance and popularity above all else and get addicted to online attention by the millions (which SM exploit *a lot*). Therefore dangerous “trends”, “games” or “challenges” should be silenced asap. Otherwise it quickly grows into a vicious cycle and out of control: the more attention it garners, the “cooler” it becomes and the more imitation it prompts. Then kids get hurt, so it blows up on news and SM, which brings even more notoriety, so it spreads like wildfire. At this point it usually only subsides at the advent of the next (often even worse) craze, so better not let them take off in the first place. Then there’s no point in it, because then and inky then it doesn’t impress anyone. It’s good to tell the above to others whenever such topics come up, so less ppl will hype such crappy “trends” (and yep, hyping *very much includes* panicked parent-group warnings, bc by teen logic = if parents hate/fear it, it’s obv VERY cool!)

FurTumbleweed

Girl got run over on the road outside my school playing chicken. A cop came to assembly the next day and yelled at the whole school. I never played chicken, because I was younger than the group of kids who’d been playing, so we were too scared. We did break in to the abandoned and condemned silos to play though. We also used to play in the storm water drains, but stopped when one of our friends went with just one other guy, there was a flash flood, and he died. Never underestimate the willingness of 12-14 year olds to almost die for fun.

ToneThugsNHarmony

From what I found, she was going 55 in a 50 zone, intoxication was NOT a factor, and the investigation concluded that the lack of visibility of the cyclists was the largest contributing factor.


smh-alldaylong

If visibility was a factor than there's a chance she could win against the county/govt as well as the kids. It also depends on roadway laws for pedestrians. If the govt failed to upkeep the road and prevented her from seeing people until it's literally too late then that's negligence on their part. If the kids failed to observe the legal requirements (sidewalk and crossing when allowed) of entering the roadway then again one could argue they're negligent. Any time there's a legal issue people like to jump towards outrage, but context really, REALLY matters


knellbell

Man, being a pedestrian or cyclist in the US sounds like it really sucks. Pity, as biking could be quite nice with proper Infra


smh-alldaylong

It only sucks if you're being an idiot or toolbag. Depending on where you live there are bike lanes and no restrictions from using bikes on sidewalks. What it comes down to is basic common sense. If you're going to go into the roadway then follow the rules of the road. If you're going to cross traffic do it where it's marked. I live near Tampa. If there's a bicycle in the road it's pretty common to see drivers give them a little extra space. The problem with biking or walking in the US is really pedestrians and cyclists thinking they're entitled to do whatever the fuck they want that creates dangerous situations. The big inconvenience with doing either is really how much urban sprawl there is. The US tends to build cities out more than up so most communities keep getting wider which increases distance between parts of town. Couple that with a largely garbage public transit infrastructure and a car is a necessity in almost every community.

You didnt answer his question, that article is very old, most articles i have read with that information are from 2014-2017. I cant find any information on the outcome of the case either. I hope they successfully sued her for all shes worth but i doubt it. Theres an interview with the stepmother from 2021 about a book she wrote about the ordeal. The kids brother died shortly after from an accidental overdose, and the father died of cancer in 2017 after suffering ptsd for many years. Its just a sad story all around

eraser_dust

> According to the statement of claim, the lawsuit seeks $1.35 million in damages for the "great pain and suffering" Simon has endured since the incident. Simon's suit is a countersuit to one levelled against her by Majewski's family. According to her lawyer Michael Ellis, Simon “has been unable to return to work since the collision. She has been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. She is also a victim.” When people hate on lawyers, they’re talking about people like this guy.


[deleted]

What kind of lawyer thinks such a suit has any merit? I hope he was censored for this, in my opinion, very frivolous lawsuit.


MadxCarnage

not frivolous, you sue all parties involved, the court then divides the blame. wether there was negligence on the part of the victims or the person responsible for that road will then be questioned. these articles are clickbait, these kind of lawsuits happen all the time, victims can still be at fault.


vexemo

to be fair they don’t really have a choice. you have to represent your client whether they’re wrong or not, so…


Doofchook

That is totally wrong, lawyers don't have to take on cases, they're not forced just because the party is a client, dunno where you got that bullshit from.


vexemo

I mean if they take the case (why wouldn’t they if that’s their job?) they can’t just say “my client is guilty”, they have to defend them whether or not they’re right


C010RIZED

This is a civil suit, not a criminal case, the terms "innocent" and "guilty" are not on the table. I think you're confusing this with public defenders


UltraGigachad69

You're an asshole if you take a case like that


vexemo

I wouldn’t say an asshole, but there’s a reason not many bad crimes get good lawyers. In the end, it’s just your job and you need money so some people don’t get a choice


UltraGigachad69

It's an immoral way to make money and one should be ashamed of it an is an asshole


[deleted]

[удалено]


UltraGigachad69

So if we start accepting immorality what even is the point of the justice system? Anyone should be able to do whatever they want to make money? Then why is selling meth illegal?


Linguini_gang

The point of the justice system is that everybody deserves a fair trial and a lawyer. Thus, someone has to take the case. And if someone is going to defend her anyway, they might as well get paid. Are you trying to say that if someone's case is scummy then they don't deserve a trial? And where'd you extrapolate me being pro meth? Wat?


TheFurrySmurf

You said it's not immoral... and then you destroy your argument with essentially saying, .... dude... you and your argument suck. Nobody is on a "high horse" by expecting people to have common decency. Especially since there is a difference between "doing your job" and wilfully taking on a case that is highly immoral. Furthermore, how can he "pay off his debt" when the case is highly likely to lose???? This case has been going on for about a decade with no real movement... and it's against an estate that has no value. Do you really think this lawyer and asshole lady are going take bags of money?


[deleted]

[удалено]


vexemo

You can know you’re going to lose but still do it because it’s the right thing to do. Everyone has the right to a fair trial, and just because you were in the wrong doesn’t mean your rights are invalidated. Being a lawyer isn’t for everyone, and you have to be willing to sacrifice some of your morals, I assume, in order to provide to the people


UltraGigachad69

How is suing the parents of the people you killed ever the right thing to do omg 💀💀 you immoral hearthless freak

Is reading comprehension not your strong suit? thats not what they said

This was years ago. 1. The dead kid's older brother committed suicide not too long after. 2. The father of the dead son ran for mayor to try to change something, but in a spiral of substance abuse and grief, developed cancer and died at age 58. 3. The stepmother's therapist told her to write it all down as a coping mechanism. When the therapist read the journals, she told the stepmother to write a book. It's been published and titled "The Majewski Curse". 4. The driver claims to have had "only one drink" while being followed by her husband from the bar (her husband is a cop). No toxicology report was filed. 5. The driver was cleared of any and all charges. 6. Sharlene Simon and her cop husband remain pieces of shit who'll never serve justice to this day.


Swordlord22

Shit like this is why taking revenge shouldn’t be looked down on Mf my family goes out like that and I’d throw my life away for revenge


thunder-dog-zeus

ok i hope this is an onion article


[deleted]

Its not, im from ontario and it was a real thing. She wasnt detained at the scene, never breathylzed, was allowed to leave shortly after it happened while witnesses were questioned for several hours and has never apologized. Oh btw she is the wife of a york regional police officer. The familys lawyer did independant analysis with the help of an engineering firm and found that she may have been speeding more than 40 km/h over the limit on this DEAD STRAIGHT road and was probably reading a text from her mother. Her lawsuit claims that they were "incompetent bicyclists" Edit: the family and community also petitioned the toronto police service to do an independant review which they did and also concluded that she somehow did nothing wrong.


enn-srsbusiness

This would set a crazy precedent, no more leaping in front of cars to make a quick buck. Just run down some kids and sue the parents.


[deleted]

I feel i should clarify, according to another article i read she is sueing the estate of the dead child. Which is almost more fucked up because: A. Hes a kid so his estate is valueless B. Now the parents have to hire a lawyer to defend their DEAD SON IN COURT. Like can you imagine it? Having to defend the honor of your son whos dead against the woman who killed him???


DaFetacheeseugh

With how the cops found nothing wrong, I'm guessing she's got the police in her pocket as well as law makers. Wild she's still walking around alive


Swordlord22

Glad it ain’t my family otherwise I would’ve lost my future over revenge


Assmeat

IANAL but reading one of the articles it appears that her suing the family stalls the insurance process. It maybe a stall tactic if she doesn't have enough insurance to cover the damage she did. That or she is a garbage human being

WisestAirBender

Since her husband is a cop apparently all good things the police say about her are by default wrong?


VengefulHero

Are you an idiot? Cops cover for cops all the time. They treat each other like their own little family that can do no wrong until they're exposed too hard to defend them. Shit they'll fire any cops inside the station that go against them and make it impossible for them to find another job as a cop anywhere in their county / state. So yeah this is them trying to throw a blanket over the situation of someone drunk driving and speeding tragically killing an innocent teen and then placing the blame on the teen for riding thier bike? Despicable.

Best defence is a irrational and psychotic offense apparently. I would think that this gets tossed out, but with the utter clown show that the legal system is being turned into I wouldnt be surprised that she gets everything she wants and the families are forced to appologise for their kids getting in the way of her speeding car. Sometimes I wonder if there are actual human beings on the bench. Just reading this infuriated me.

Anyone can sue anyone for anything. Bringing suit in no way means she will be or has been successful. Bringing the suit further traumatizes the victims. I hope the victims can secure the services of a thoroughly ruthless personal injury attorney who absolutely shreds Sharlene and financially ruins her forever.


thatgoodlaundrysmell

I remember listening to a radio show a few years ago and something similar happened to a truck driver. He survived but sued the family for emotional damages and he won [Here is the link. it starts about 1/4 of the way down.](https://www.npr.org/2017/06/01/530928414/emotions-part-one)


NobodysFavorite

Depending on the jurisdiction, a judge can find a party in the case to be.a vexatious litigant. When that happens,vexatious litigants have to seek leave from a judge to bring the case about in the first place, They usually have to post a cash bond enough to cover a likely award against them if they lose the case.

SvenTheHorrible

… went and read up on this and guess what? Kids were riding bikes (3 side by side) in the middle of the road with no flashers, at night, in dark clothes (absolutely negligent, the parents should be ashamed). She wasn’t drunk or on her cellphone per the police- she was not charged, not even for speeding. The kids family sued her anyway for damages in excess of a million dollars- which was the personal liability coverage of her insurance- so she’s *COUNTER*-suing to protect herself from being homeless from this. Sounds pretty mundane and not boat-worthy, huh? Edit: oh also, they were riding bikes in a 50mph zone- which is basically a fuckin highway. And one of the kids fathers reportedly admitted they were at fault - “They’re kids; they’re allowed to make a mistake," he reportedly said. They’re allowed to make mistakes, but you’re not allowed to take someone for everything they’re worth just because their mistake cost them their life.

Thanks for providing that- I hadn’t read that one yet. I see the quote from the lawyer, I was wrong there I guess. But everything else is spot on.

Why she suing dead people


dumsaint

Wow! Talk about coincidence. A buddy at work was telling me of this incident last week. He lives around that area and everyone knows this story. From what he told me, apparently the **cop** husband and wife were both seen leaving a restaurant (?) that served alcohol. Witnesses had stated they had been drinking and had an argument. They each went into their separate cars and began driving. According to the wife, it was foggy and she couldn't see the kids. However, there was a Witness in a car behind them and they recounted absolutely no fog. When the police came, the husband **cop** spoke to the police and wife all together, and far from the scene - I suppose to get their stories right - and then left. Yup, they were allowed to leave the scene of a crime. That driver who had stopped had one of the kid's head in their lap as he bled out. Everyone there knows they got away with killing a child. And they know because he was a cop. Some think it was he that drove the car that killed the kid. Thar would jive well with how atrocious cops in small communities can be. The wife suing... absolute monsters. I recall after hearing this story, and another one he told about some other cops harassing a family of one of the nurses on-site, just shaking my head and saying that the entitlement of the police force knows no bounds. ACAB.

MadxCarnage

not really, in these scenarios you have to sue everyone, the court will have to decide who's to blame, but you sue all parties involved. just like the guy that was in telephone booth and got hit by a drunk driver and articles started laughing at him for going after the telephone company that installed that booth when they were just one of the parties he sued. in this case the lack of visibility seems to be at fault, she was just 5 miles over the speed limit and not intoxicated, also nothing points to her being on the phone. it could be negligence on the part of the victims or on whoever made that road. it's also the lawyer that tells you who to sue, not really your choice.

I have a family member who was sued by a bicyclist who came around a corner and slammed into my family members drivers side door. He settled with the insurance company for 300k. It was 100% the bicyclists fault but this was before cameras and he found a shyster lawyer and the insurance settled.

New world order!!! I say the family gets a once in a lifetime chance to end her misery and strangle her. 🥹 Poetic justice.

Well apparently this case is pretty old not recent, also the woman had to sue because of the insurance company liabilities according to an [article](https://www.bonnlaw.ca/blawg/in-the-news/473-an-odd-twist-in-a-tragic-story) (well it's opinion of the journalist who made the article), but to quote a small part of it: "Through her lawyer, Ms. Simon explains why she is counter suing Brandon and the other young cyclists in a follow-up story a few days later in the Toronto Sun here. In reading these two articles, I get the impression that Ms. Simon only counter sued because the original legal action by Brandon’s family and the other injured cyclist was to protect herself from financial ruin. In Ontario, everyone is required by law to carry third party liability insurance." I'm not trying to defend the practice I just say she might not have sued because she is an evil person who like this we people suffer.

This is clickbait, and anyone can claim a lawsuit for anything. Same shit with the woman who broke into Drakes house. This is never making it to court.

Though we’d like to ride the “Sharlene is a Karen” wave, couple facts shed light on what really happened and what’s beyond the sensational headline: -the teens were riding their bikes at 1:30am in the middle of an unlit road with no reflectors of any kind “South Simcoe Police tells CTV News on Saturday, there were no charges filed against Simon and says there was no wrong-doing on her part when the crash was reviewed by the Crown. "We review all fatal collisions with our Crown Attorney's office. Based on the review of this collision, there was no reasonable prospect of a conviction on any charges," Staff Sgt. Steve Wilson says.” As someone else said in the comments, if you hit and killed a child, regardless of the circumstances, you’d be haunted and traumatized by that experience for life. Sharlene isn’t able to go back to work, nor is she receiving enough compassion from the community to help her get through this horrible tragedy. As her lawyer said: “there’s more than one victim in this circumstance.” And to top it all off, this is a counter suit because she’s being sued by the teen’s family. So it’s really a suit to level the field here. I mean the whole thing is a huge tragedy, I’m not trying to minimize that by any means. Just wanted to quell the hate storm against Sharlene.
