Estifanos fell to her death on Sept. 5, 2021, while the young girl was visiting Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park in Glenwood Springs with relatives.
“Soaring Eagle certified to Glenwood Caverns that the ride met all applicable standards, but that was not true,” their statement alleged.
In addition, Soaring Eagle was aware of two prior ejections from this same restraint design—information they hid from the world."
In an interview with KUSA, Caplis said Soaring Eagle no longer exists, adding, "That’s going to be litigated after this trial.
On the significance of the $205 million jury award, the attorney told KUSA: "The whole purpose of the law on punitive damages is ‘Learn the lesson, make the world safer, make sure this never happens again.
