How in the he** can any court allow a suit like this to go through? Sue the wife for something her left wing nut job husband did? Not to mention, if I heard correctly, her and her child were in danger from the house fire that self same nut job set. People are fickin’ sue happy in this country.
It seems that many people think that if something goes wrong, someone has to pay. In this case, the perp is dead, so there is no getting revenge on him. His family is the next logical choice.
