Morgan Harrington's family sues RMC (event managing company) for negligence

[evitaperon]

<p>I’ve had bad experiences with the rude and unempathetic staff of this company too, but what takes the cake is that RMC, who managed the concert for Metallica that night, turned Miss Harrington away after she “suffered an unexplained head injury and two- to three-inch cut on her chin with substantial bleeding”…an [assisting] “bystander noted Harrington did not smell of alcohol, was conscious and appeared extremely disoriented”.</p>

<p>

The Harringtons argue that not only did RMC breach common law duty to provide reasonable care to ill, injured or otherwise debilitated patrons, but also violated general protocol. In many other instances concert attendees have been allowed re-entrance after, for example, visiting the parking lot to retrieve a wallet, according to the suit.</p>

<p>The Harrington family said they feel RMC’s negligence was a direct cause of the abduction and murder of their daughter, and are seeking $3.9 million in damages.

<p>I’m quite inclined to agree with the Harringtons in this case…RMC was essentially an accessory to murder. And yet the University and Charlottesville continue to hire out the services of this company to manage their events?</p>
