WHAT. THE. HELL!?
Okay so umm...how does this even work? I mean is this really a thing? I just don't get it...who has the balls to kill someone's kid then sue the family!?
update:
Now the driver of the SUV, Sharlene Simon, 42, a mother of three, formerly from Innisfil, is suing the dead boy for the emotional trauma she says she has suffered. She?s also suing the two other boys, as well as the dead boy?s parents, and even his brother, who has since died. She?s also suing the County of Simcoe for failing to maintain the road.

Update 2:
Then last December, Simon filed a $1.35-million lawsuit against Majewski's estate, and against the other two bicyclists, for "great pain and suffering." Simon claims she has suffered from depression, anxiety, irritability and post-traumatic stress, and that the "enjoyment of life has been irretrievably lessened" since the accident

"She relives the terror of this incident every day. Ms. Simon has been unable to return to work since the collision. She has been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. She is also a victim," Ellis said, according to CTV News.

I know that there are people who say that the kids should've been doing things and whatnot, defending the driver.
However. It is my belief that the driver of the SUV is trying for a pay day. If this was simply about getting the family to drop their lawsuit then she wouldn't also be suing the other two families and the county.
Furthermore, there are reports that her husband, a police officer, was following behind her during the accident.
Ultimately, some people may defend her lawsuit as justifiable but I think it's disgusting.
