They got the story wrong. The decedent was in the car which was struck. Errant driver was on Face-Time
“The little girl, Moriah Modisette, was killed on Christmas Eve 2014 when the Toyota Camry she was traveling in with her parents was struck from behind by a Toyota 4Runner on Interstate 35 north of Dallas. The Camry had slowed or stopped for traffic when it was struck by the SUV going 65 mph, the lawsuit states.”

That said — it is still a BS lawsuit. Shame on their lawyer!
Definitely puts a different light on my criticism of parents and their responsibility - thank you for the update. My respects to the parents and their loss through no fault of their own. My disrespect to the BAD reportage of the story I quoted!
