Nancy Grace Sued For Wrongful Death

Submit a Tip!

NOVEMBER 21--The parents of a woman who committed suicide shortly after a grilling by Nancy Grace today filed a lawsuit against the TV host, claiming that their daughter was driven to her death by the hard-charging former prosecutor. In a wrongful death lawsuit, the parents of Melinda Duckett charge that Grace duped their daughter into an interview about Duckett's missing two-year-old son, Trenton. That interview, which aired on Grace's CNN Headline News show after Duckett's death, was more of a cross-examination, with Grace peppering the 21-year-old woman with questions about her whereabouts at the time of her son's late-August disappearance. On September 8, a day after her interview with Grace, Duckett used a shotgun to kill herself. While Florida police have described Duckett as the prime suspect in her son's disappearance, they have said they believe the boy may still be alive. A copy of the wrongful death lawsuit, filed by William and Beth Eubank in Lake County Circuit Court, can be found below. The complaint, which also names Duckett's estranged husband as a defendant, seeks undisclosed damages. (9 pages)

I think Nancy Grace is a self-righteous, egotistical, narcissistic woman who thinks she knows everything and goes beyond the moral limits in order to attract ratings and punish those whom she judges prematurely and inappropriately. At this point she needs to have a self-reckoning and apologize for badgering those that she invites to her show. In this light, CNN might reconsider her future employment.

I love Nancy Grace and watch her every day, but if I wouldve ended up killing myself (thank God I didn't!) Would everyone have assumed I was responsible for my sons death?? Wow. Seems like only God should be in charge of this. It really scares me how ignorant people are so quick to point fingers at someone suffering a tremendous loss. How truly sad that this 21 year old lost her life. People need to realize by pointing a finger, they have 4 fingers pointing right back at them.

I don't know. I don't think we should judge the mother actually. My baby son died of SIDS and I attempted suicide myself after losing him. I wasn't guilty in his death at all. Have you ever lost a child? If not, how would you know how it feels??????
