IIRC, the family did settle out of court with the “attraction”— I’ll call it that because all it really was was a small operation with just a few “rides.” There are all types of “attractions” around the Dells.
Anyway, when this first happened, the news was that the place was tanking financially as it was. I think there had already been foreclosure proceedings in place on the property at the time, so it is doubtful that the Marti’s got anything near what they should have for the magnitude of the liability. I don’t know because the settlement amount was confidential.
Thanks for the information.
I presume that such an operation would have a good deal of liability coverage, regardless of their underlying financials. But insurance isn’t a given.
