陈花: Honey, did you see the news? A man died suddenly while buying sex, and his family actually demanded over one million yuan from the woman.
黄刚: I did. The court ultimately rejected the family’s request because it was a sudden death and there was no direct causal relationship with the woman.
陈花: But the family thinks she didn’t call 120 in time and delayed the rescue.
黄刚: The court found she reported to the police within ten minutes, fulfilling her basic duty. Medical evidence showed the cause of death was sudden death.
陈花: I see. The man himself also broke the law, and that can’t be ignored, right?
黄刚: Right. Soliciting prostitution is illegal. The court also noted he must bear responsibility for the consequences of his own actions.
陈花: This case is thought-provoking; it reminds us that responsibility for illegal conduct can’t be shifted onto others.
黄刚: Exactly. The law emphasizes evidence and causation; you can’t demand compensation out of emotion or sympathy.
陈花: Looks like learning some legal basics is important—at least to know which claims can stand.
