Jury awards Amtrak train crash victim $10 million
Amtrak will pay more than $10 million to one of the dozens of passengers injured in a train derailment near DuPont in 2017.
Donnell Linton suffered serious injuries and trauma when the train he was on derailed and plunged onto Interstate 5, killing three people.
Linton was awarded $10,094,668. He is the fifth person to be awarded monetary damages.
In November, a jury awarded $4.5 million to a Maple Valley woman injured in the crash. Three other people were previously awarded nearly $17 million.
