WATLINGTON LAWSUIT DETAILS-BNR-PKG

his tragic death-

is now the center of a multi-million dollar lawsuit.

*take sot* chuck "everything i see and do, i think of my son. not one second goes by. i can't see anything without thinking of him and how needless this tragedy was."

11 year-old jesse watlington died after being stuck by lightning.

his family wants millions from mcgregor baptist church and southwest florida christian academy-

they're suing for negligence.

50:04 "we all expect that our children will out live us."

today-

jesse's parents stood with their attorney to announce they've filed a lawsuit-

11:42 "this could have been prevented."

early october,

the child was running out onto the football field for practice at southwest florida christian academy- when a

lightning bolt struck him directly in the heart.

jesse died days later at a tampa hospital.

53:24 "no body can control a tragedy, but when they do happen, we can be prepared. we can anticipate."

the watlington's say the church and school weren't prepared and didn't do enough to protect their son.

the day of the strike-

they claim the skies were dark-

and the kids were unsupervised when heading out to the field.

the church though has denied those claims-

stating that coaches were there, and it was a clear day.

there's also the issue regarding a lightning detection device.

the pastor previously told us the school has one and it was working, but

wouldn't go into any other details.

the watlingtons say it was stored in a closet.

11:13 "every single kid on that field has told us it was not on the field. we've had people come forward."

jesse's family tells us the school didn't have a defibrillator-

and that it took coaches 10 minutes to perform cpr because they didn't know how.

however a police report states that right after the lightning strike, one coach ran to call 911,

while 2 others immediately began performing cpr.

*take sot* chuck 12:14 "my heart has been ripped out of my chest- my daughter,

LIGHTNING DETECTION SYSTEMS-(3)CG

TODAY, WE FOUND OUT WHAT LIGHTNING DETECTION DEVICES ARE IN PLACE AT OTHER SOUTHWEST FLORIDA SCHOOLS.

IN LEE COUNTY, AT LEAST 13 SCHOOLS WILL SOON HAVE A SYSTEM INSTALLED CALLED, "WEATHERBUG".

THE COUNTY ALSO USES HANDHELD DEVICES AND AN EYE PHONE APP.

TOSS TO CHARLIE-PLASMA

NEW INFORMATION TONIGHT SURROUNDING THE DEATH OF A THREE YEAR OLD CHARLOTTE COUNTY BOY.

IT'S JUST A HORRIBLE STORY.

DEPUTIES SAY OVER THE WEEKEND, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, THE TODDLER SOMEHOW GOT HIS HANDS ON A GUN AND SHOT HIMSELF.

3 YR. OLD SHOOTS SELF FOLO-BNR-PKG

CRIME SCENE TAPE NO LONGER SURROUNDS THIS PORT CHARLOTTE HOME.

BUT QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED EARLY SUNDAY MORNING REMAIN.

"The child sustained a gunshot wound which proved to be fatal." Lt. Michael Casarella, CCSO

AT A MORNING PRESS CONFERENCE, LIEUTENANT MICHAEL CASARELLA EXPLAINED DETECTIVES ARE STILL INVESTIGATING THE CASE.

HE SAYS BOTH PARENTS WERE HOME AT THE TIME AND ARE COOPERATING WITH THE INVESTIGATION.

IT'S TOO SOON TO SAY IF THEY'LL BE PROSECUTED.

"our investigation obviously deals with determining the facts of the case and if the facts of the case lead toward some culpability, then yes charges will be forthcoming, but at this point no determination has been made." Lt. Michael Casarella, CCSO

THAT DECISION LIES IN THE HANDS OF STATE ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.

"everybody wants to own a firearm it seems like, but there are inherent responsibilities with the ownership of a firearm, especially when there are children in the household." Lt. Michael Casarella, CCSO

CASARELLA IS USING THIS INCIDENT AS A REMINDER TO GUN-OWNERS TO PROPERLY SECURE THEIR FIREARMS.

Nats: "the magazine feed comes through the top like so."

AT A AND H GUNS IN PORT CHARLOTTE nats: "lock it the exact same way" JOHN MAHSHIE SAYS GUN OWNERS HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO PROTECT CHILDREN FROM THE WEAPONS.

Nats "this particular lock is a trigger guard lock."

MAHSHIE SAYS EVERY NEW GUN SOLD COMES WITH A LOCK, AND…

"if we sell a used gun, we also provide a lock with that gun." John Mahshie, A & H Guns

"There is a tremendous amount of responsibility that's involved in the ownership and the possession of these weapons." Lt. Michael Casarella, CCSO

DETECTIVES SAY THE HANDGUN THE 3-YEAR-OLD USED WAS LEGALLY OWNED.

THEY ARE NOT RELEASING THE NAMES OF THE VICTIM OR HIS PARENTS.

3 YR. OLD SHOOTS SELF FOLO-TAG

AS CHARLIE EXPLAINED, THE BOY'S PARENTS ARE COOPERATING WITH INVESTIGATORS.

ONCE WE FIND OUT THE CHILD AND PARENTS' NAMES, WE'LL LET YOU KNOW.

HE THEN CHANGED HIS MIND, AND INSTEAD, TOLD THE COURT HE WANTED TO PLEAD GUILTY. THE JUDGE REFUSED TO ACCEPT HIS PLEA.

DUNN TRIAL DELAYED-SOTVO

"His desire to plead guilty I think is genuine. I think there is a certain amount of surrender involved in it as well. I think there is a certain amount of defiance in there as well, but fundamentally judge, and I'm being as candid as I can, fundamentally judge it is motivated by mental illness."

THE JUDGE ORDERED MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS TO EVALUATE DUNN THIS WEEK.

THE DEADLINE LOOMS FOR V-R LABS.

LEE COUNTY WANTS PROOF THE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY IS USING MILLIONS OF TAX PAYER DOLLARS TO CREATE JOBS.

AND THIS WEEK THE COMPANY ANNOUNCED PLANS THAT COULD HELP THEM DELIVER ON THEIR PROMISE.

VR LABS PRODUCTS-BNR-PKG

A SHUTTERED BUILDING.

A LEGAL MESS.

MILLIONS OF TAX PAYER DOLLARS IN THE MIX -

BUT BONITA SPRINGS BASED V-R LABS SAYS IT HAS A NEW PRODUCT TO OFFER.

THE HERBAL PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY AIMS TO SQUASH CANDIDA AL-BE-CANS

it's a whole variety of infections commonly known as yeast infections. But it comes in a variety of ways - people in surgery or chemotherapy.

THE COMPANY doesn't HAVE AN EXACT DATE OF WHEN IT WILL BE AVAILABLE.

problems still linger for VR labs - the company is in the middle of a legal battle with its contractor.

And it's production warehouse here off Alico road is unfinished - leaving the question of how they'll get their products made.

we'll have a very flexible manufacturing capability so it could be here - we have to wait and see.

LAST YEAR -

LEE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AWARDED V-R LABS 5 MILLION DOLLARS TO CREATE MORE THAN 200 JOBS AND BUILD THE WAREHOUSE.

CONSTRUCTION STALLED WHEN THE CONTRACTOR STARTED QUESTIONING THE COMPANY'S FINANCES.

THEN, LEE COUNTY'S ATTORNEY TOLD THE COMPANY IT WOULD DEFAULT IF IT DIDN'T PROVE IT WAS SPENDING THE MONEY TO CREATE JOBS.

INCOMING COMMISSIONERS ARE HOPEFUL A NEW PRODUCT WOULD GET THINGS MOVING.

if they can produce a product, sell it and create jobs with it. That is a good thing.

V-R LABS WILL ALSO SIT DOWN WITH THE COUNTY LEADERS THIS WEEK -

HOPING TO WORK OUT A DEAL AND AVOID DEFAULT.
