Man awarded $7.5m for motorcycle crash that shortened his penis by an inch and a half

Injured: A California jury awarded a former U.S. sailor $7.5 million after a motorcycle crash fractured his pubic ramus bone resulting in his penis shortened after surgery by an inch and a half.

A former sailor has been awarded over $7.5 million in damages over a car crash in California that shortened his penis by an inch and a half.

Newlywed Matthew Wall suffered crush injuries and nerve damage to his manhood after a 2007 accident in San Diego.

The 27-year-old underwent reconstructive surgery that left his penis an inch and half shorter than before the accident

A jury in El Cajon, California, awarded him $7,553,000 in damages as compensation for pain, suffering, medical bills and loss of income.

Mr Wall was riding his motorcycle to work at the US Navy submarine base in San Diego when he was struck by a shuttle bus from a nearby car showroom

The jury heard that the van turned left in front of Mr Wall who was unable to avoid the collision.

He was thrown off his motorcycle and suffered a fracture of his pubic ramus bone and a crushing injury to his penis and damage to the nerve and arteries of the penis.

Mr Wall’s lawyer Nicholas Rowley said the van’s driver, Pedro Flores Miramontes, was a non-U.S. citizen who had an expired driver’s license and had never been trained as a shuttle driver.

Mr Wall is no longer in the Navy and lives in South Carolina, said Mr Rowley.

He had recently married at the time of the crash but the couple has since divorced.

Mr Rowley said it was uncertain if Mr Wall would be able to have children because of the injury.

‘It’s going to affect his relationships and his self-esteem in the future,’ Mr Rowley told the San Diego Union Tribune.

A spokesman with the defending automotive group says they plan to appeal the verdict.

Republicans kiss my grits, with red lipstick!

Only 12 members of Congress voted to approve health benefits for “1st Responders” to 911 Twin Towers.
Yes the Democrats overwhelmingly passed it. It has been years since 911 and the folks that involved
their lives to save whomever are now greatly disturbed with health concerns – OK who knew. What the
outcome effects would be. These folks Fire Dept, Police Dept, Medics put there lives on the line to help.
And this is how Congress rewards them for a job well done to the best of their ability – well damn Congress.
And you wonder why – folks are voting for anybody other than the incumbent to stand for there City,
or State reps. How dare you put these folks on the back burner. Do you have no shame or guilt what you
are doing to these folks. Understandably the economics in this country are steep, why do you think that
President Obama wanted the Health Care Reform bill past. Not just for future clients, but present ones in
need as well. Congress when are you going to get off your azz and stop throwing a rock and then hiding
your hand. You took your offices with a “vow” to pledge and help your constituents of your state and
others. Do not turn a blind eye to the needs of Americans, families are involved here and future generations.
Have you thought about what your legacy would be when you depart your office? Was it to help or hinder
the causes of citizens of the USA? Or is it money talks and bullshyt walks Congressmen Republicans.
