College Student Passes Away from Heat Stroke After Coaches Deny Water Break
What about it?
They had made him run up and down a steep hill seven times in a row with now break. He desperately begged for water, enough to run to the school fountain, but no water was flowing. He was found a few yards away with no response. They settled with $14M for the family out of court. A spokesperson from the Uni said they could have easily defeated the case against the family, but didn’t want to go through long legal processes.
Grant had ADHD and narcolepsy, his medicine required him to maintain proper hydration, especially during exercise. The two coaches involved had mocked him during those exercises saying, “Do you think you are special and are allowed more water?†No word if the coaches were charged, but Grant’s final words to them were, “Please help me, you promised you would help me†over and over again before becoming incoherent due to the stroke.
