Cable company ordered to pay over $7 billion in damages to family of Texas grandmother murdered by employee

who was brutally stabbed to death in her home by a Spectrum employee in 2019.

The jury awarded a verdict of $375 million in compensatory damages and said the company was responsible for paying 90% of it after the trial revealed “systemic failures” in the company’s pre-employee screening, hiring and supervision practices.Trial lawyer Chris Hamilton, who represented the Thomas family in the case, said, “This was a shocking breach of faith by a company that sends workers inside millions of homes every year.

The release, by Hamilton Wingo LLC, stated that Charter Spectrum continually refused “to correct its negligent safety practices.”
