Not looking good for Arte! “Judge limits the Angels’ legal options in Tyler Skaggs wrongful death case”
3 comments
Summary – “An Orange County Superior Court judge Monday ruled that attorneys for the Angels will be limited in their attempts to blame others than a former public relations director for the death of pitcher Tyler Skaggs…The plaintiffs argued that defense attorneys cannot legally present new facts when there has already been another trial that established a set of facts. In this case that trial was the federal conviction in Texas of Eric Kay, who has been sentenced to 22 years in prison for providing drugs to the pitcher that killed him…Colover ruled the Angels could still argue other contributing factors to the pitcher’s death, but that **it has been established that the pill Kay supplied Skaggs was what killed him.**
Okay, we dont have to post this same update 10 times.
So this is just a money grab right? I mean like the kid is dead- he took pills and ODed. I dont think its even anyone’s fault but his own despite someone supplying him the stuff. Certainly Arte and the org had no idea so why is this even a thing. I hate Arte too but this feels like a shake down… sad
