Think for a minute, if you were in their position what would you want? If someone I loved died I would want justice, or revenge. I would want to see them punished. I would want to see them go to jail for a long time, I might even want to see them go to the chair. I would be badgering the police and the DPP (or DA) for prosecution. If the police failed to act I would probably start a private criminal case against them. But it would be a criminal case, not a civil one. I would want them punished, sent to jail, I would not be after making a bit out of the death. The moment you sue for money you are saying "I care for money more than I care for my daughter". Personally I have every sympathy for someone who looses a loved one, right up until they start profiteering from it. At that point they become as bad as the person who did the killing.

That is the what you don't get, it is criminal NOT civil.
