The family of a British commodities trader who died while partying in Las Vegas will accept $350,000 to end a federal lawsuit stemming from the disappearance of the man’s internal organs after an autopsy and before his body was returned to London, their lawyer said earlier this month.
Relatives of Richard Boorman will take $50,000 that Clark County commissioners agreed to offer and a pending $300,000 insurance settlement from the funeral home that handled Boorman’s remains.
However, family members don’t think they got satisfactory answers about what became of Boorman’s heart, liver, kidneys, lungs and brain in 2005, attorney Jonathan Charles Capp said.
“It’s a done deal,” Capp told The Associated Press. “But we’re really none the wiser. It looks like we’ll never know what happened to the organs of Richard Boorman.”
