Seems like a good wrongful death case...

Depends on how well the "Contestant Release", which each contestant signed, was written.

The station (FM 107.4 out here) is a hip-hop outfit; I was surprised at her age, RN background (if true) she participated.

I doubt that the contest release would exonerate them. In most states, those releases are held invalid when you are dealing with bodily injury. Sometimes an assumption of risk argument works, but you better have a pretty clear disclosure of what the risk is.

Three things that should have prevented this from happening to her are her age, her education level,
and her income. Looks to me from the pic that they were a family that could afford a Wii. She doesn't seem to fit the hip-hop demographic, either. Very strange indeed.
