Insurance Company on the Hook for Millions After Woman Got an STD Hooking Up in a Car
In an unprecedented case, a Missouri appeals court ordered Geico to pay a woman $5.2 million, after she had unprotected relations in a guy’s car and got an STD.
The woman claims she got a sexually transmitted disease from an ex-boyfriend after sex in the back of his Hyundai Genesis. Since he did not disclose that he had the STD before the unprotected sex he was found responsible.
The woman was awarded $5.2 million for damages and injuries to be paid by Geico. Geico initially refused a settlement of $1 million, claiming they had nothing to do with it. It looks like Geico is working on an appeal to this verdict.
