Wrongful Death Lawsuit Filed Against Suspects Accused of Murder
Introduction
The parents of Preston Lord have filed a wrongful death lawsuit against seven suspects and several parents, following his death after being beaten in October 2023. The documents obtained by Arizona’s family reveal that Lord’s parents, Nicholas Lord and Autumn Curiel, are suing Talan Renner, Treston Billey, William Owen Hines, Jacob Meisner, Dominic Turner, Taylor Sherman, and Talyn Vigil. The parents named in the lawsuit are the Renners, as well as Roberto and Emily Correa, who own the house near the place where the beating took place.
Lawsuit Details
The family of Preston Lord is suing the seven suspects for negligence and battery as they were under the influence when they injured Lord. Along with aiding and abetting allegations, Lord’s family is also suing Renner’s parents for negligence, and the lawsuit mentions previous violent incidents involving Renner. The parents of the seven suspects are being sued for their liability from the acts of their kids. Taylor, a criminal defense attorney not involved in this case, said that family members may file a civil lawsuit to get justice if the parents are not criminally charged.
The House Party
On Oct. 28, 2023, Lord and several friends went to the house party near 194th Street and Via Del Oro. The party was advertised on social media, including Snapchat, with teens calling it a “Halloween Rager.” The post reportedly said the party was open invite with “alcohol provided first come, first serve.” Up to 200 teens and young adults who attended several East Valley high schools showed up at the home. Documents allege the Correas were inside the house the entire time the party was occurring. The lawsuit claims that the couple “did not supervise the activities of the numerous juveniles and young adults in their backyard” and were “under the influence of alcohol.” The lawsuit says alcohol was “readily available” to the teens.
The Alleged Attack and Lord’s Death
A fight broke out between two groups after the homeowner asked everyone to leave the property. Allegedly the seven suspects beat Lord, which left him unconscious, and ultimately he passed away two days later after he was rushed to a nearby hospital and airlifted to Phoenix Children’s Hospital.
The Case
The lawsuit filed by Lord’s parents names several parents and their children as defendants, alleging negligence and battery against the seven suspects while they were under the influence of alcohol. Lord’s family is suing Renner’s parents for negligence and claiming them for not supervising their minor son. Roberto and Emily Correa also face negligence allegations of not adequately supervising the activities of the juveniles and young adults in their backyard and providing alcohol to minors. The lawsuit states that the Correas should have taken responsibility for supervising the teens and stop serving alcohol to minors.
Opinion
The details of the wrongful death lawsuit filed against the seven suspects and several parents, including the Correas, present a sobering account of how negligence and poor decision-making by both the suspects and their parents have resulted in the tragic and untimely death of Preston Lord. The occurrence of such incidents is evidence that we need to take extra precautions with minors to ensure they are not put in dangerous scenarios without proper supervision. It is essential to be aware of the activities of young people, provide them with guidance and care, and only let them attend social gatherings supervised by responsible adults. The loss of this young man’s life is indeed unfathomable, and one can only hope that legal proceedings and penalties serve as a reminder of the importance of responsibility and the consequences that result from a lack of it.
Conclusion
The wrongful death lawsuit filed against the seven suspects and several parents in The Lord Family’s quest for justice is but one example of how these types of incidents affect loved ones, friends, and communities. It further emphasizes the importance of responsible behavior and decision-making by minors and their parents alike. It is essential to ensure that all young people are not put in potentially dangerous scenarios and that careful supervision is present, which could avoid any unpleasant incidents. The death of Preston Lord is a tragedy, and we can only hope that the legal process will serve as a reminder to all about how important it is to ensure the safety of minors and protect them from harm.
