Morgan said the family, who lives in Alabama, claims that the snake escaped at the park and entered an area accessible by park visitors. The incident happened in October 2014.

A Disney spokeswoman confirmed to WKMG that the boy was bitten by a snake at the park, but she said the snake was wild and not part of the park's animal collection.

The family claims the boy's grandmother, who witnessed the incident, went into cardiac arrest and died two days later.

After reading the article I am guessing the snake was non venomous.

She dies two days later. Must have taken Granny a while to figure out what she had seen.

'A Disney spokeswoman confirmed to WKMG that the boy was bitten by a snake at the park, but she said the nonvenomous snake was wild and not part of the parks animal collection. She also said the boy was treated by a park nurse, and then the family left and enjoyed the rest of their day at the park, according to WKMG. There was no call for an ambulance following the incident, according to the the Disney spokeswoman.'

This happened in 2014 but just now the family threatens to sue....?

Morgan and Morgan are bottom feeding, ambulance chasing scum. They took in Charley Crist and ran him for governor. They are pushing a constitutional amendment for ‘medical Marijuana’. Real scum.

She had the heart attack 2 days later... The snake was wild and not venomous... Granny was in her late 80’s and just spent several LONG days standing/walking in the Florida sun , probably the most exertion she’s had in a decade or two...

And she’s being sued by liberal ambulance chaser and Obama fundraising kingpin John Morgan... (he’s letting his kid be lead on this suit).

If it were a Florida swamp python , whose snakebite consumed the child in one gulp, grandmama might have good cause for her cardiac arrest. ;^(

“And she’s being sued by liberal ambulance chaser”

I’m not going to bother to go look, but I really doubt the dead granny is being sued by anyone.
