Lawsuit Filed Over 8-Year-Old's Death in Houston Hotel Pool Pipe
An 8-year-old girl was found "wedged in the pipes of the malfunctioning pool equipment" at a Houston hotel, leading to a lawsuit against Hilton and the hotel's operator seeking at least $1 million in damages. The girl disappeared in the hotel's lazy river and was later discovered in a 12- to 16-inch unsecured open gap in the pool's flow system. The lawsuit alleges multiple violations in the pool's inspection reports and claims that the new piping was malfunctioning.
