Twins awarded $33M after 4 years
A court in San Mateo County, California, has issued a verdict awarding $33 million in damages to twin girls, victims of a traffic accident that claimed the lives of their parents, Greg Amen and Grace Speridon, four years after the incident in 2022. The accident resulted from an illegal street racing event led by a 17-year-old teenager at approximately 110 miles per hour (around 177 km/h), which caused his vehicle to collide with the couple's car. The court held both the teenager and his parents responsible, noting that the teen’s mother was aware of his reckless behavior and did not take sufficient actions to prevent it. The awarded damages included $19 million for economic losses and $14 million for emotional and moral suffering, amounting to $7 million for each of the girls. This ruling serves as a warning to parents about their responsibility to monitor their children's behavior while driving.
