From your link
quote:

A Los Angeles County jury found Friday for Michael Garcia, who underwent skin grafts and other procedures on his genitals after a venti-sized tea drink spilled instants after he collected it on Feb. 8, 2020. He has suffered permanent and life-changing disfigurement, according to his attorneys. Garcia’s negligence lawsuit blamed his injuries on Starbucks, saying that an employee didn’t wedge the scalding-hot tea firmly enough into a takeout tray.


I'd say burning his genitals because they sent an unstable hot drink through his window is why. Burned skin doesn't heal right, it's tight and loses elasticity... can you imagine the pain of morning wood on burnt skin?

I'm not even a dude and it pains me to think about all the ways his life has changed for the want of properly securing a hot beverage.

There is no way this happened from hot tea. I could pour boiling water on my pants in my crotch area and there would no scenario where I would need skin grafts. Total bullshite.

I could buy a lot of drugs with that $50mm to numb the pain.

Edit: now I can’t quit thinking about a Freddy Krueger looking morning wood singing “hurt”

“Florida Man” finds creative ways to go to jail

“California Man” (probably not a real man) finds creative ways to win frivolous lawsuits

I believe it was gig work? Maybe not, but it sounds like maybe so based on the first line in the article.
