Camp Pendleton Crash Resolved in Court

Jurors are sending a message to big business. 

The only way to hurt big business is through the pocket book.  When you  hit them there, they eventually come around to doing what is right. 

After this California wrongful death lawsuit verdict, my bet is that SDG&E will develop a belated conscience and will install safety devices or ball markers to help prevent this type of disaster. 

So we are offering congratulations to the jurors for using their voices; and congratulations to the families. No amount of money is going to bring back those precious four lives, or ever ease the pain of their families, but, at the very least we can hope that the families will have some comfort that a small measure of justice has been served.
