Chris Soules 37 (Bachelor) and his parents were ordered to pay 2.5 million in a wrongful death lawsuit from a car accident he was involved in!! …. parents were not in any way involved from what I can see ...wow!

I think the news story is leaving out allot of info. Maybe the parents knew he fled the scene and didn't turn him in. They must be involved somehow.

He did call 911 at the scene, requested medical assistance and identified himself, before leaving the scene ……. maybe the truck he was driving was registered to the parents?

In other words legal blackmail.

I guess if its technically legal it can't be blackmail.

So aggressive negotiation followed by capitulation.

Ha, this. In this day and age, I can't imagine why anybody would want to have kids.

Probably what people said during WW I . . .

Im thinking the car may have been registered to the parents company or was in their name.

Somehow, someway they still were connected to him.
