A woman is suing a man who she says sexually assaulted her as well as his mother who owned the home where the attack took place.
Durelle J. Hall says that on October 21, 2007 while visiting with Ignacio Nunez at his mother Martha Chavez's condo, Nunez physically attacked and sexually assaulted her "in a forceful and brutal manner." Both Hall and Nunez were minors at the time.
Hall is suing Nunez as well as Chavez. Against Chavez, Hall asserts among other things that Chavez was negligent when she "failed to protect Hall from the unsafe and dangerous persons who assaulted her while at [Chavez' home.]"

Okay, so she's suing the guy who assaulted her--makes sense.
Suing the MOM? Essentially for not hovering over her son when he was talking to a girl? Let's face it: if she HAD wanted to have sex with him, she would have been GLAD that the mother wasn't right up in their business! Is the mother supposed to predict the girl's intentions? Or from another angle: does thinking that teenage boys might be able to control their urges now constitute "negligence"?
