Seems like a good wrongful death case, but I question whether it is a criminal matter. Are they saying that the perps knew she was going to die when they set up the contest? Doesn't seem likely.
What about a charge of reckless endangerment? They sure were laughing it up on the show. Also, from what I heard, a nurse called in and was trying to tell the jocks that people can die from water intoxication.
From http://cbs13.com/local/local_story_017093935.html
During the contest, a listener - self-identified as a nurse - called the live radio broadcast and warned that the game was dangerous.
"I want to say that those people drinking all that water can get sick and die from water intoxication," said the caller.
"Yeah, we're aware of that," replied a DJ. "They signed releases so we're not responsible, okay?"
THEY ARE SCREWED!
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.
