Florida Lawmakers Revisit 'Free Kill' Law Repeal
Florida lawmakers are pushing to roll back the state's "Free Kill" law, a decades-old statute that critics say blocks justice for families whose loved ones die due to medical negligence.
The current law bars non-economic damage claims, such as pain and suffering.
"This is in no way, shape or form, a bill that is punishing doctors or our medical staff whatsoever,"
said the bill sponsor, Fort Pierce Republican Rep. The bill cleared its first committee stop in the Florida House, marking the latest attempt to reform a law that exists only in Florida.
