to having accidents at Walmart and other stores, Pat VanLester, 41, is
monumentally unlucky. She has been injured at lots of wealthy retail outlets, has sued Walmart nine times and other stores seven times. Since 1978 she has received thousands of dollars in accident claims. When she took her fall in Orange City she was airlifted, apparently unconscious, to Halifax Medical Center, Daytona Beach. As Walmart issued an apology and its offer of a bargain DVD player, her sister Linda Ellzey said: "She got pushed down, and they walked over her like a herd of elephants." Doctors said Pat had suffered a seizure in the crush and would need to stay in hospital for a few days. Pat VanLester's history of |
injury claims did
not come out at once, probably because they were made in a variety of
legal last names - Rastellini, Findley, Crabtree and Platt.
Sister Linda has also made a prior claim against Walmart, with
Patricia acting as a witness. The story of the multiple claims emerged in an investigation by television reporters Tony Pipitone and Darran Caudle of WKMG-TV in Orlando. So far no claim has been made against Walmart for the DVD incident. If it is, the sisters will run into a litigation brick wall.

It now has a policy of aggressive counter-attacks on the nationwide echelon of lawyers who specialize in suing Walmart. |
