On
the one year anniversary of his death Jerry Lawler has filed a wrongful death
lawsuit against Hardeman County, Tennessee because of the death of Brian
Christopher Lawler. Lawler was found hung in his jail cell after he had been
arrested after a fight with a friend of his. The lawsuit was announced in a
press release that was issued by Rosenblum & Reisman, Attorneys at Law: "Jerry
Lawler filed a lawsuit on Friday, July 26, 2019 seeking justice for Brian
Lawler's family. Lawler is seeking compensatory damages and punitive damages in
an amount to be determined by a jury for the numerous failures of the county and
its employees that resulted in the wrongful death of his son, Brian Christopher
Lawler. Lawler is also asking the court to order Sheriff Doolen to make changes
at the Hardeman County Jail to protect all inmates from future harm." Brian
Lawler died at a hospital after being found hanging in his cell at Hardeman
County Jail. Lawler has expressed doubt over the ruling that it was a suicide
from the start. Any money derived from the lawsuit will go to supporting Brian's
son.
