Our Legal Take
As the details of this accident continue to develop, the family of Violet Sprinkles may elect to file civil claims seeking substantial compensation for their loss. In addition, Kevin Cruell, Samantha Jordan and Brenda Pettus may elect to file civil claims seeking substantial compensation for their injuries.
