People can die for various reasons, and most of those reasons may not pertain to the company. I think a lot of frivilous lawsuits occur as a result of someone dying, claiming it was because of consuming a product. What we don't know is if the people died due to an allergy, over-consumption, or from another source. The fact that we have a system that allows a person who burns themselves from spilling hot coffee to win a case leads me to believe that the person/people filing this lawsuit might win.

Don't get me wrong. I think a company should be held liable for its products, but the company should not be held liable for someone now having common sense or for misuse of the product. The prosecutors should be able to prove, without a doubt, that no other factors resulted in the deaths.
