Normally I am filled with contempt for our legal system, but in this case it seems they got it just about right.

I agree with you. The jury system too often takes advantage of sympathy and results in outrageous verdicts; but there are times when it works.

May I ask why? Not about your contempt, but why you think this is right........

They got this right?:

“The jury found the Wal-Mart employee, Martha Watson Hookfin, 100 percent at fault, an unsigned verdict forum shows.”

So the the woman and her care takers have no responsibility to properly treat the wound to PREVENT the infection?

Once the infection set it, the hospital and her care takers had no responsibility to properly treat the infection/wound?

No responsibility on her part to take her meds? Were there any? (not mentioned)

Unless the walmart employee sprinkled her with bacteria then chained her down so she couldn’t get it treated, she is NOT 100% at fault...
