Other individuals received settlements for their injuries suffered in the incident.[1]
  • Veterans receiving poor care at Augusta’s Togus Veterans Affairs Medical Center received more than $1 million from the federal government in 2020. The first veteran to file a lawsuit in 2014 led to others. The suits alleged poor podiatric care resulting in permanent injuries and disabilities.[2]
  • The Augusta Commission agreed to a settlement of $480,000 in 2019 for a sheriff’s deputy who suffered serious injuries on the job. The injuries resulted from vehicle collisions and other incidents that caused leg, spinal, and brain injuries.[3]
