What? You are fucking clueless.
Where does money come? Who is well off? The dad? Or dead dude? Why did you even mention that?
The dude is just a grieving father... Who has an attorney, that any bloke can go and get. Will he be good? Or be dog shit? Is the question how big your pockets are.
The dad is pissed. He's mad at Tesla, He's mad at the world. He's mad at his daughter. He has this in his head "ANY OTHER CAR wouldn't of killed my daughter".
Dude please. He's a father still in denial, and looking for any excuse out that isn't "Sir, Your daughters action tonight is what loss her life, not the car, not the man, not what she saw on TV night before".
He 100% blames Tesla. He isn't even close to the stage of blaming his daughter yet. Read here: http://www.indystar.com/story/news/2017/02/12/father-tesla-driver-had-she-been-another-vehicle-she-would-have-been-alive/97752674/ The source of the source in OP article.
He hasn't even sued Tesla yet. Soon as he does, the day he losses in court.
He's looking for public support. It's exactly what it is now. But now the BAC levels are released by police, nobody, i mean nobody, will side with him and agree his daughter isn't at fault. When she was 3x the legal limit..
Case is over.
