Kushy Punch Wrongful Death Suit Raises Liability Issues

Nov 3, 2020

Steele was a health-conscious woman who rarely drank alcohol, according to the suit, and had only tried marijuana a small number of times. She was working as a flight attendant when she tried the Kushy Punch gummies, the suit says, due to them being misleadingly advertised as a safe, healthy product.

“Contrary to defendants’ misrepresentations,” the suit states, the gummies took Steele’s life “after she ingested them and experienced acute severe symptoms that lasted for hours, including cardiovascular, respiratory, psychiatric, and dysphoric symptoms that manifested as uncontrollable movements, terrifying heart racing, trouble breathing, and mental and physical uncharacteristic outbursts and severe panic attacks.”
