Kaitlyn Lasitter Update

kaitlynlasitterow2 Kaitlyn Lasitter Update

Louisville, Kentucky — Well we got an update from our good friend, 613. He is the father of Kaitlyn Lasitter. The name may not ring a bell for some of you, but for some of the old-timers of this site, the name brings back some memories. Kaitlyn was the unlucky girl who happened to be riding the Superman Tower of Power at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom. The ride had not been maintained correctly, and a cable snapped severing both of Kaitlyn’s feet. It was one of our first stories we ever posted in which a family member came in to participate. Needless to say it was, and still is, an interesting read. Well, I just heard from 613 and we have an update in the form of a news article (and an awesome picture of the beautiful Kaitlyn).

The Courier-Journal has an article up detailing some of what was done, and not done, that lead to the malfunction of the ride Kaitlyn was on that day. One of the major points being that maintenance workers did not follow several of the ride manufacturer’s instructions for caring for the very cable that snapped. Hands-on inspection on any of the 10 cables on the Superman Tower of Power ride had not been performed, and park technicians did not lubricate the cables monthly opting to apply cornstarch instead.

Read the article for more details, but in a nutshell, the park is fucked. They failed to follow simple maintenance procedures provided by the manufacturer of the ride that led to a mechanical malfunction and the physical injury to Kaitlyn and others on that ride. While I am sure that Kaitlyn and her family would rather this incident never had taken place, unfortunately, it did. So I am hoping that the park gets reamed and the Lasitter’s get PAID. Not only for the gross negligence that led to the severe injuries Kaitlyn suffered, but also bolstering my suspicions I already had about these theme parks.

Thanks for the heads up on the article, 613, and again, I hope you, Kaitlyn and the rest of our family are doing well.

    I used to work for Six Flags Astroworld….many, many moons ago….
    Anyway, most of the people working for Six Flags are kids. When I was there I was all of 18 years old, I was a ride operator and honestly I do not know if the training they gave me was enough to save someone in this kind of situation. In fact, I was told by some ride operators (especially the ride that drops you really fast) that they had been told to never, never, never hit the emergency button. So upon hearing that I dont know what I would have done in an actual emergency.
    Also, the people that managed my park were not interested in the people coming to the park they were interested in the money they brought into the park.
    I was actually assulted by a visitor of the park one night. She and her kids held me down punching and kicking me, while people stood around and watched. When I got out of the situation and park security came I was taken to a back office by one of the managers. After talking to me she told me it was better not to file charges against the woman for doing what she did becuase I would have to go to jail that night as well. I was only 18 and had no idea of the legal system. All I could think of was that I would get beat up in jail by the cops or the other prisoners. (I was very little, 5′ and only 87 lbs)

    I hope that Six Flags has to pay loads of money to this family and I hope they actually learned something from this incident. I am so happy that 613 is not keeping quiet about what happen, and is fighting them. These are the ‘big boys’ and sometimes it is scary to fight them.

    Why would a park that had dangerous equipment stint on safety checks? I am so sorry that this accident happened and I hope that the park gets held to the utmost reach of responsibility.

    I, too, Morbid, have always been uneasy about rides that are supposed to put you in safe-danger.

    What a gorgeous girl. I’m so sorry she’s had to go through this, and I hope Six Flags pays for her education, her medical bills and counseling, buys her first house and car, and finances her wedding, up to and including the dance lessons.

    There’s no excuse for that kind of negligence.

    I will NEVER understand how people can get on rides like these anymore. As much as employees everywhere fuck up nowadays, there is no way I’m trusting my life or my child’s life to them. Every year there is some sort of accident or malfunction at the Youth Fair here in Miami. One year a girl got thrown out of the Gravitron (one side of it just flew off while she was inside) and got killed. When I heard about Kaitlyn I was absolutely horrifed, and I knew for sure that I was right for being weary. Poor, beautiful, girl. Something good will come out of this, I bet she’ll have the money to go to the finest college, and never have to worry about money again in her life. It’s the very LEAST she deserves.

    I will NEVER understand how people can get on rides like these anymore. As much as employees everywhere fuck up nowadays, there is no way I’m trusting my life or my child’s life to them. Every year there is some sort of accident or malfunction at the Youth Fair here in Miami. One year a girl got thrown out of the Gravitron (one side of it just flew off while she was inside) and got killed. When I heard about Kaitlyn I was absolutely horrifed, and I knew for sure that I was right for being weary. Poor, beautiful, girl. Something good will come out of this, I bet she’ll have the money to go to the finest college, and never have to worry about money again in her life. It’s the very LEAST she deserves.

    Why would a park that had dangerous equipment stint on safety checks? I am so sorry that this accident happened and I hope that the park gets held to the utmost reach of responsibility.

    Greed, and a disconnectedness that comes with business culture. I’m sure the boss man would have ensured the ride was safe if his daughter and niece were riding it regularly. Just look at the size of the ride and the G’s it pulls – that cable would have sheared a horse in half, given the tension and speed at critical failure. You’d be checking and re-checking a ride like that – to manufacturer’s specifications (especially in the Magic Land of Litigation) – unless your hubris and rampant capitalism had eaten away your sensibilities.

    Were they able to reattach her feet?

    I was an older article from the link posted in the update, and this part just broke my heart:

    Kaitlyn also said boys no longer call her, she is treated differently by her friends and other people make fun of her.

    That was the first thing I thought of when I first heard that this accident had happened to a teenage girl: the accident itself is bad enough, but teenagers can be so, so shallow and cruel, that the aftermath would be where the real difficulties came in.

    By any measure, she is absolutely stunning, and will only be prettier, the older she gets. Sounds like she’s incredibly brave and strong, as well. One of the articles said that she’d hoped to be a model; I hope she still can be, because she’s a perfect example that beauty is many, many things…none of them having to do with the number of feet you have.

    I wish her all the best, one redhead to another.

    She is gorgeous! My son and his friend had told me about this at the end of last year, but I never found this article. Thanks, Morbid for posting an update! I showed her picture to my 14 year old – he said “she’s hot”…doesn’t matter to him that she has lost the use of her legs right now. I’m glad I raised him right to oversee people’s limitations and look at the person. He said that he would not have stopped talking to her. That makes me proud to hear that. Guess he did listen to me after all….

    Update on Kaitlyn’s story: the family has accepted a settlement with the amusement park which should take care of Kaitlyn for life. Details follow:

    Park Settles With Family Of Girl Maimed On Thrill Ride
    Family: Settlement Is Best For Daughter

    LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The family of a girl who was injured on a thrill ride has settled with the amusement park.

    Kaitlyn Lasitter’s feet were severed when a cable snapped on the Superman Tower of Power ride at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom in 2007. Doctors reattached her right foot, but were unable to save her left foot.

    State inspectors ruled Six Flags failed to properly inspect and maintain its ride and that an underage operator failed to activate an emergency brake at the first sign of trouble.

    Kaitlyn Lasitter’s family sued the park for negligence. A judge set the trial for January, 2010.

    In a press release, Kentucky Kingdom representative said, “Kentucky Kingdom has reached a settlement with the Lasitter family that will provide lifetime care for Kaitlyn Lasitter. We deeply regret the tragedy that Kaitlyn suffered and she remains in our thoughts and prayers. All of us at Kentucky Kingdom are committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of our guests.”

    Monique Lasitter, Kaitlyn’s mother, released a statement concerning the settlement.

    “After a long and extremely difficult year and a half, we as parents, with the advice of our lawyer have decided [this is] the best that we can do to put this incident behind us and provide Kaitlyn with the best possible medical help available to secure her future. We would like to thank everyone in the community for all their support and we realize as a family this will never make things right for our daughter, who ultimately will have to live with this the rest of her life. We can only hope for the safety of others we have helped to change some of the safety procedures at these parks and that something this tragic can never happen again.”

    The Lasitter family’s attorney said the settlement will bring some relief.

    “There is no way you get to be okay when your daughter has her legs cut off,” said Larry Franklin. “They are glad to get out of the legal system because the legal system is very stacked up against individuals. They could have been in the legal system for four to six years.”

    Franklin said the family has incurred $500,000 in medical bills since the incident, but he couldn’t elaborate on the terms of the settlement.

    “In Kentucky you are allowed to recover for pay and suffering,” he said. “Thats physical and mental pain…and when you get into the aspect of mental pain, she was 13 when she lost her legs, she doesn’t know yet what’s going to be ahead of her.”

    I know from experience, no amount of money would ever be worth what she has and will still go through. The physical pain is nothing compared to the mental anguish. I’m glad they don’t have the financial stuff to worry about anymore though. That does bring some relief.
