Drakeo The Ruler’s mother to file £15million wrongful death lawsuit against Live Nation
Drakeo The Ruler is suing Live Nation for £15million in a wrongful death lawsuit.Drakeo, 28, was on the bill at Once Upon A Time In LA festival on December 18 last year and was reportedly stabbed in the neck by unknown assailant(s) backstage. He was taken to hospital but later died of his injuries.The rapper’s mother, Darrylene Corniel, said last month that she intended to sue the concert promoter over his death, and the lawsuit has now been confirmed in a press conference from her lawyer, James Bryant.Revealing that the case would be filed this week, Bryant said the family would be seeking $20million (£15m) in damages, alleging that Drakeo was “essentially lynched” at the event due to a lack of security precautions.“His life was taken way too soon,” Bryant said, adding: “This should never have never happened if those promotors had actually had the proper security protocols.
