Toyota ordered to pay $11.4 million in fatal Camry crash
by Ben Rooney @ben_rooney

Koau Fong Lee spent more than two years in prison after his Toyota (TM)
unexpectedly sped up and crashed into another car, instantly killing two
people and badly injuring three others.
On Monday, a jury in Minnesota found that Toyota was 60% responsible for the
accident and ordered the automaker to pay $11.4 million to Lee, his family
and victims of the crash.
The verdict, which came after a three-week trial in federal court, said the
accident was caused by the car's unintended acceleration, a problem that
forced a massive recall of Toyota vehicles from 2009 to 2011.
According to Lee's lawyer, the deadly accident occurred on a clear Saturday
afternoon in 2006.
Lee was driving home from a church function with his family when his 1996
Camry suddenly sped up. He tried to regain control of the car but could not
and it crashed into an Oldsmobile.

In addition to killing two people, the accident left Devyn Bolton, the six-
year-old girl niece of the man who was driving the Oldsmobile, a
quadriplegic. She died 18 months later.
Lee and his family were not harmed in the accident.
In 2008, Lee was sentenced to eight years in prison for criminally negligent
homicide.
He was released from jail two and a half years later when unintended
acceleration in many Toyota cars became widely known. The same judge who
sent Lee to jail overturned his conviction and set him free.
Toyota said it sympathizes with Lee and the other victims of the crash. But
the company maintains that its car was not the cause of the accident.
"We believe the evidence clearly demonstrated that Mr. Lee's 1996 Camry was
not the cause of this unfortunate accident," a Toyota spokesperson said. "We
will study the record and carefully consider our legal options going
forward."

Lee's lawyer, Robert Hilliard, said Toyota spent tens of millions of dollars
trying to "frame" his client.
"Shame on Toyota for wrongly attempting to once again lay the guilt of this
accident on Koua," said Hilliard. "The lives lost and the horrible
consequences of that tragic day in 2006 are a direct result of this
dangerous and defective 1996 Toyota Camry, and not Koua Fong Lee."
The jury awarded $4 million to Jasmine Adams and $1.25 million to Quincy
Adams, both of whom were in the Oldsmobile and were badly injured in the
crash. It also awarded $4 million to the estate of Devyn Bolton.
Lee, who sued along with members of his family who were in the car that day,
was awarded $1.25 million.
