Thats what liberalism demands. The perp can’t be at fault because that would entail responsibility for ones actions. That would violate the sacrament of ‘personal truth’.
Besides, there’s no money in it. Lawyers are one of the greatest contributors to the DNC. It’s why they sue any and everything. They profit, donate and laws are made to increase their profit.
There you hit upon it. The lawyers don’t care if the family is screwed by this decision. They would take up to 50% if they won, but they only lost their overhead as it is. If you want to make frivolous lawsuits end, don’t make the plaintiff pay opposing counsel make the plaintiff’s lawyer pay. They can promise the naive client anything, and then walk away and leave them holding the bag.
