Georgia man’s death during threesome nets his family $3M in trial

The family of a Georgia man who died when his heart couldn’t take a three-way sex romp was awarded a hefty $3 million payout by a jury, according to reports.

William Martinez’s estate was originally seeking $5 million in a medical malpractice case that claimed a cardiologist failed to warn the 31-year-old to stay away from physical activity. While Gwinnett County jurors sided with the family Tuesday, they agreed to a lesser amount after finding Martinez was 40% liable for his own death, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Wednesday.

Martinez, a husband and father of two, was engaged in a threesome with a friend and another woman who was not his wife, according to the newspaper. He died March 12, 2009.

Another reason this nation is dying. NOTHING is anyones resposnsiblity. It's always someone elses fault.

Sounds like a lost episode of “Night Court”....

This time it really is the bush’s fault.

[Cicero]

This really is absolutely disgusting.

[BO Stinkss]

He came and went

[rovenstinez]

So everyone else with cardiovascular disease will pay MORE for their services so these doctors can reward those who abuse the judicial system. Insurance rates will continue to rise..... Oh, when will we learn. Tort Reform NOW.

[cripplecreek]

Martinez was 40% liable for his own death

I'd say closer to 33%.

[Lurker]

There is a VERY substantial penalty for early withdrawal.

[Lazamataz]

Unfortunately, I did die. However, now I’m rich!

One of the comments from ‘AlBundy57’ at the site is absolutely hysterical!

[dynachrome]

The disgusting part is the insane jury that awarded $$$ to his family.

[TexasFreeper2009]

[Paleo Conservative]

Thanks to tort reform, this wouldn’t happen in Texas.

[panaxanax]

Good one!

[RandallFlagg]

As long as you don’t weigh the same as a duck, yer gonna be okay, FRiend.

[TexasFreeper2009]

little confused by the wording it says a friend and another woman... was the friend a guy?

so was it 2 guys and a girl or two girls and him? an accidental crossing of swords could give many a heart attack.

There’s a 7% penalty fee for stupidity.

Schmuck. A pain in the arm, etc is a warning that you have a problem.

Take two aspirin and call your menage a trois in the morning.

For the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23a)

He got all that he desereved.

[Dallas59]

Damn...I don’t have any perv family members with bad hearts./s

[dynachrome]

He was 100% responsible.

[Arrowhead1952]

If the pic at the site is part of the "crime scene", I'd say it was the previous or one gal has REALLLLLLLLLYYYYYYY hairy legs.

[Nifster]

Geez, I guess stupid pays off.....

[WomBom]

PHEW!
Glad you above the dirt Laz Baby!

[awaken2spirit]

“He got all that he desereved.”

Judge not a man by how he spells his words.

[unlearner]

Every doctor anywhere near this place should pack up and leave and let the community know why.

[Conservative Vermont Vet]

Gee, can't believe that no one (maybe its because this one's as old as me?) commented on....

...."how long it might have taken for the undertaker to get the smile off his face?"

[Graybeard58]

Judge not a man by how he spells his words.

A man is poor indeed if he only knows one way to spell a word.

You COULD say he died because he couldn’t keep his heart on...

And - at least he went out with a bang!!!

Umm....yeah....

[RichInOC]

I’d rather go out with a smile on my face like Nelson Rockefeller than screaming, crying and gasping for breath like Megan Marshack.

[GOPsterinMA]

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NFHale]

Well....It’s TRUE, ya know....:^)

This could also be seen as a “triple bypass” gone bad...

[NFHale]

So...was Nelson Rockefeller “marSHACKING” up?

I’m just sayin’....

[GOPsterinMA]

You CRAZY!!! :)

[NFHale]

Now, Mr. Martinez, as your physician, I must counsel you against bisexual menages a trois ...

What is wrong with these lawyers? What about the other guy? What about the female? They get nothing? The post traumatic stress, the mental pain and suffering, the humiliation, the smell of the dead guy ... etc. etc.

BTW, how was the doc supposed to know that Martinez had a kink? STOP THE PRESSES!

I just checked the link to the original article. Dr. Sreeni Gangasani, of all people, should have known this from his medical reading of the Kama Sutra. Give Mama Martinez el dinero. BTW, this doc must have a mail order diploma ... guy comes in with chest pains and the shooting pain in the arm thing and Sabu schedules the test for 8 days later?

Dr. Gangasani, you were welly welly bad. Did you take a slow googly to the head when you were a child? Pay the man.
