Wal-Mart Settles Wrongful Death Lawsuit over Drug sold at Pharmacy
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. has settled a wrongful death lawsuit claiming a pharmacist at a Frederick store sold a too-strong insulin drug to a diabetic man who died after taking it. Terms of the settlement reached during a mediation session in Baltimore were kept confidential.
The case was settled amicably, with no admission of liability or fault by anyone.
I guess the shareholders were happy with the wrongful death settlement, Walmart shares rose 1.15 to $48.83 on the day of the settlement. They closed the week out over $49.00 a share. Hopefully the family received a respectable settlement for their tragic loss of their family member. Regardless of how much money they received, it will never bring back their loved one.
