It's also wildly ignorant. As if anyone in the "Hilton Family" had any involvement with the construction/design of that hotel/pool outside of their name on it. You want to find someone to blame, I understand that, but "the Hilton Family" had absolutely nothing to do with this tragedy.

thats horrible. the hotel owner, brand, and any company that was working on this pump will pay immensely for this mistake, and rightfully so.

I saw that on the news. Such a terrible story. I live not far form there so a lot of people in the hood are talking about it.

Doesn’t matter. The Hiltons will be the name on the lawsuit.

That family is going to own Hilton by the time this is over.
What if it was a 3rd party pool company that was hired/contracted by Hilton to maintain the pools and lazy river......Hilton is a multi billion dollar corporation that protects themselves from accidents like this....
Of course they will settle, but to say that family is "going to own Hilton" Thats just ignorant.
Does the family that had their daughter eaten by an alligator at Disney World a few years ago own Disney World?

I doubt this property is even owned or operated by Hilton - it's just licensing the name
This is more likely

Yep. The family will get an 8- figure settlement from insurance, no one will “own Hilton”.

this. Just checked their 10-k. They don't own any Double Tree hotels in the US. They manage 31, and franchise 354.
Yes, they will still be named in the suit for sure. Insurance company will be the one that pays out the settlement.

I'm saying this more out of I want the Hilton family and hotel chain to pay for what they did and hurt somehow, I'm not saying money is going to make the mom and dad feel better and that this money is the answer for a loss of family. It's more I want Hilton to pay for it... because do you think Paris Hilton is going to give any shite whatsoever about this if they aren't required to pay a dime? Not at all, she'll continue on with her constant vacations, never working, etc. Only thing that will wake them up and make them feel wrong about this is if you hit their wallets for 9 figures. I'd be just as satisfied if it all went to charity. Just want them to pay. Specifically an ungrateful girl who has everything handed to her and never works, no stress whatsoever. Want her to feel what stress is.
Seems like a lot of pent up hate for the Hilton family. Did something unseemly happen to you at a Hilton in your past?

Hcad records shows two LLC's with agents in Sugarland.

So you’d let your 8 y/o swim alone at a hotel?
My kids are near that age and are strong swimmers. We let them go around a lazy river without ever considering this to be an option. We always know where they are, but that doesn't mean we have eyes on them every second and that is how long it took that little girl to disappear if no one saw her get sucked in.

Blaming the parents for an 8 year old going around a lazy river and then disappearing is crazy. They could have been on the deck and then looked up and the child was gone. Hence the missing child report and video investigation.
Seeing those pics of the pool, I take it all back. That hotel is double fricked and is about to be sued into oblivion.

That’s at least the 2nd time someone has said that in the first two pages.. the fact that your mind would even go there- as if that would in any way comfort the family or bring back their kid- is sick.. even if it’s true, it’s still fricked up for people to jump to that .
If this happened to your kid would you not sue them?

Holy cow you sound like a miserable human being. And an ignorant one to boot.
