Several children were sickened, one died in 2019 after visiting San Diego County Fair
Court records indicate that the state board that runs the Del Mar Fairgrounds will pay at least $4 million to settle a lawsuit brought by families affected by the 2019 E.coli outbreak that killed one child and caused severe illness in several others.
Court documents list no specific settlement with the Cabezuela’s family, though his mother’s name is included in the lawsuit’s title.John Gomez, whose firm jointly represented the families with another group in Texas, said in an email that the Cabezuelas received $3 million. The payment was not included in legal filings because settlements with adults do not require court approval.
He said judgements can be much higher in situations where a person survives, but becomes irreparably injured. One recent case, he said, involved a young person who suffered a debilitating stroke after infection who will forever struggle with severe impairments. No petting zoo or pony rides are listed in the fair’s online calendar this year, though it was not clear if the list is comprehensive. Those two locations were heavily scrutinized in 2019 after E. coli infections began to appear, though testing of animals in the fair’s petting zoo and pony rides came back. Testing of livestock was much less comprehensive because most animals had already left the event by the time it became clear that an outbreak was underway.
