The American man obtains genital starbuck tea burns, demands and earns US $ 50 million

A delivery driver won US $ 50 million in a lawsuit after being seriously burned when a Starbucks drink spilled in his lap on a trip in California, as shown in the judicial records.

An Los Angeles County jury found Michael García on Friday, who underwent skin grafts and other procedures in his genitals after a tea drink of the venti size spilled moments after he collected it on February 8, 2020.

He has suffered permanent disfiguration and changes life, according to his lawyers.

García’s negligence demand blamed his wounds to Starbucks, saying that an employee did not locate hot and accelerated tea with firmness in a tray to carry.

“This verdict of the jury is a critical step to hold Starbucks for the flagrant contempt for customer security and the lack of acceptance of responsibility,” said one of García’s lawyers, Nick Rowley, in a statement.

Starbucks said he sympathized with Garcia, but planned to appeal.
