$75 million sought against gun distributor

WEST PALM BEACH -- An attorney said Tuesday he is seeking a $75 million civil judgment against the distributor of a handgun used to kill popular teacher Barry Grunow.

Attorney Bob Montgomery told prospective jurors that Grunow's widow, Pam, and her two young children each deserve $25 million in their product liability suit against Valor Corp., which sold the.25-caliber Raven gun used in the May 2000 shooting.

$75 million from a gun distributor because someone else used on their guns in a crime? What kind of idiot would listen to this?

They excused 10 jurors (from a pool of 60) because of "strongly held opinions about gun ownership". They are stacking the jury.
