A wrongful demise swimsuit was filed Monday in opposition to seven defendants, a lot of unnamed people and an area comfort retailer. Since there have been no arrests made within the case and the lawsuit fails to offer any proof of its claims, TooFab isn’t figuring out the defendants — apart from the one who spoke with PEOPLE on the document in regards to the submitting.

Presgrove was discovered bare, sporting nothing however mismatched footwear, on the aspect of the freeway by a passing truck within the early morning hours of September 4, 2023; he spent the earlier evening ingesting at a home celebration. His demise was initially deemed “suspicious” by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation.

The medical expert’s report later revealed Pregrove died from “a number of blunt drive accidents” — although the way of demise was listed as “undetermined.” This implies there wasn’t sufficient proof to help whether or not he died from murder, suicide, accident or another means.

“[Presgrove’s] demise was not brought on by being hit by a motorized vehicle.” the swimsuit, by way of KFOR, claims — earlier than later alleging the teenager “was beat to demise by a number of of the defendants.”

The submitting calls the celebration as a complete a “civil conspiracy” by these named within the swimsuit “to furnish alcoholic drinks to underaged and intoxicated people, resembling [Presgrove], over the course of a number of days.” The defendants are accused of constant to produce Presgrove with alcohol “even after he was already intoxicated,” earlier than permitting him to drive an ATV and moving into an accident on the car. Later, he was allegedly seen “verbally combating” with two defendants, earlier than he disappeared.

Noting Presgrove’s blood-alcohol degree was “practically double the quantity of blood-alcohol content material that will be current in a typical, intoxicated individual,” the lawsuit places blame on his buddies for giving him alcohol, driving him on an ATV and, within the case of the comfort retailer, allegedly promoting alcohol to a minor for the celebration.

“All Defendants engaged in a civil conspiracy to host a celebration for underaged ingesting, and failed to forestall hurt to a member of focused class by failing to forestall Decedent’s demise,” reads the swimsuit, which boldly claims, “Both deliberately or unintentionally, the Defendants killed Decedent.”

“Though the demise might have been unintended, internet hosting the celebration and beating of Decedent was deliberately, malicious, and in reckless disregard of the Decedent’s rights,” it provides.

Caleb Newton, who’s a defendant within the swimsuit and the daddy of one other teen named in it, advised PEOPLE he hasn’t “been capable of finding one factor within the lawsuit that has any fact to it,” including, “I do not know the place this data is coming from.”

“It is an enormous waste of everyone’s time and feelings,” he added, whereas saying, with regards to blaming anybody particular individual for bringing alcohol on the celebration, “no person equipped for the entire deal or something goofy like that.”

“The adults there and the children should not have allowed it to get to any place the place Noah was ever going to be susceptible to dying,” legal professional Austin Vance, who filed the swimsuit on behalf of the teenager’s household and property, advised PEOPLE.

“I do not suppose anybody expects their 19-year-old to ever go to a celebration and die,” he added. “It appears clear to me that any individual laid fingers on Noah and that induced his demise.”

Presgrove’s brother Daniel added: “We have exhausted each avenue, we have accomplished every little thing that we are able to, and so that is actually the final massive Hail Mary to hunt that retribution, search that fact in order that we are able to put every little thing to mattress.”

The household is searching for $75,000 in damages.
