The family of a Georgia man who died when his heart couldn’t take a three-way sex romp was awarded a hefty $3 million payout by a jury, according to reports.
William Martinez’s estate was originally seeking $5 million in a medical malpractice case that claimed a cardiologist failed to warn the 31-year-old to stay away from physical activity. While Gwinnett County jurors sided with the family Tuesday, they agreed to a lesser amount after finding Martinez was 40% liable for his own death, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Wednesday.
Martinez, a husband and father of two, was engaged in a threesome with a friend and another woman who was not his wife, according to the newspaper. He died March 12, 2009.

So everyone else with cardiovascular disease will pay MORE for their services so these doctors can reward those who abuse the judicial system. Insurance rates will continue to rise..... Oh, when will we learn. Tort Reform NOW.

Martinez was 40% liable for his own death
I'd say closer to 33%.

little confused by the wording it says a friend and another woman... was the friend a guy?
so was it 2 guys and a girl or two girls and him? an accidental crossing of swords could give many a heart attack.
