Another GTA Wrongful-Death Suit Launched (Cody Posey)
Categories: Game Violence Cases • Jack Thompson
Jack Thompson is involved in yet another wrongful death suit brought against Rockstar, Take-Two and Sony. This one involves the case of Cody Posey who confessed to killing his father, stepmother and stepsister. Once again Thompson, representing the surviving Posey relatives, argues that the game acted as a simulator that trained Cody to be effective killer. Thompson had filed a similar suit in Alabama where he was forced to remove himself from the case shortly before his temporary Alabama license was revoked in a shroud of controversy.
