YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

tarbucks will have to fork over $50 million to a man whose genitals were severely burned after a hot tea spilled in his lap at a California drive-through. Delivery driver Michael Garcia underwent skin grafts and other procedures after the fateful spill of the piping hot, venti-sized Starbucks beverage, which immediately fell onto his crotch area after he bought it on Feb. 8, 2020. In his complaint, Garcia said he “suffered severe burns, disfigurement, and debilitating nerve damage to his genitals” as a result of the incident. The resulting injuries were permanent and life changing, his attorneys said. Garcia can be seen reacting to the pain when the beverage spills on him in video released by Trial Lawyers for Justice.
