A stricken widower is suing the parents of four teenagers who dismembered his 73-year-old wife by viciously dragging her along behind her own SUV during a horrific fatal carjacking.
Rickey Frickey launched the lawsuit to hold the parents 'responsible', his attorney said, holding them partly to blame for her March 2022 death in a newly filed suit, seeking at least $50,000 in damages.
After the final perpetrator, John Honore, 18, was convicted of murder this week, Linda's grieving husband is suing Honore's parents and those of three others involved.
Honore's accomplices, Briniyah Baker, 17, Lenyra Theophile, 16, and Mar'Qel Curtis, all took plea deals that saw them convicted for manslaughter and sentenced to 20 years behind bars last month.
Frickey's lawsuit was put on ice until Honore's trial concluded, and he is now seeking over $50,000 for wrongful death, loss of income, and emotional suffering.
Frickey's attorney said the lawsuit intends to show 'what may happen to parents if they're not involved trying to ensure these things don't happen.'

We always have to read about these stories in the UK press - just saying
Sue...
Collect...
SSS...
In that order...
Agree the likelihood of collecting even $50,000 is remote, but making the parent...likely single... might at least point at their letting their kids grow up feral. I am pleased these young thugs were tried as adults and given hard time. Even the accomplices got 20 hard years and not some cushy plea bargain that would have them shortly back on the streets.
I know what would cure my pain and suffering if it were my wife.
However the parents will have to obtain legal council.....which will cost them. Not to mention their time and headaches wondering how it will turn out once all is said and done.
Me too. I would beg and plead to have the ferals released from custody. I would just demand that I be told the time and place.
The one good thing about getting older is a life sentence isn’t such a long penalty, plus I don’t mind sitting around and reading all day long.
No bills, no trips to the grocery store, no lawn to take care of, no cleaning or cooking....
