fladogfan aka Gretchen 259 Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 That happened years ago up north when copper stealing was just getting popular. It was either Con Ed or LI Power where the jerk went and cut into a live high voltage line. He turned crispy, the family sued and won. Not sure on what grounds or why, but the utility company payed out a hefty sum.Who said crime doesn't pay? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Same thing happened when a kid climbed on top of a RR car and got electrocuted. They sued. Never should have been allowed in court.
