Case Details
Jeffrey’s father gave 2-year-old Jeffrey a popular Mini-Jel candy. Jeffrey began to choke, suffered serious brain damage and died two weeks later. The manufacturer knew the candy was dangerous for young children but deliberately marketed it to children. The judge awarded $50 million to Jeffrey’s parents.
Additional Notes
After the case made national headlines, the Food & Drug Administration banned the further import of konjac gel candy into this country.
