Verrill, who is paralyzed from the waist down and can’t feel hot and cold in the lower half of her body, suffered a third-degree burn on her buttocks that was so serious it required surgery and months in bed to heal.
Verrill, 26, is now suing General Motors, the legally troubled maker of the Suburban she had been riding in, seeking to hold the company liable for her injury. In a complaint filed on her behalf last month in U.S. District Court in Portland, she accused the automaker of negligence for failing to adequately test the rear seat heaters in the Suburban to prevent them from reaching “dangerously high temperatures that would burn human flesh.” to read more: pressherald.comSign up for our free e-mail list to see future vaticancatholic.com videos and articles.
