Family Sues for More Than $50 Million After Woman Was Found Dead in Dollar Tree Freezer

From your link: “Sanchez’s family also claimed that the store’s manager was ‘placed on actual notice’ that she was missing and hadn’t exited the store and ‘failed to take reasonable action to locate or assist Sanchez.’”

This doesn’t make sense to me. She entered the freezer on her own and could have exited at any time. The freezer was not locked, and the emergency release was working. She entered a restricted area voluntarily, which places responsibility on her actions. Also, that's criminal trespassing. MOO JMO
