Baby killed by the chest of drawers, Ikea pays $ 46 million

Ikea has agreed to pay $ 46 million in compensation to the parents of a 2-year-old boy, Jozef Dudek, who died suffocated in California in 2017 after a company-produced Malm chest of drawers had fallen on him. The BBC reports it.
According to lawyers, this is the largest amount of compensation ever granted for the accidental death of a child in the United States.
In 2016, Ikea had already agreed to pay $ 50 million in a common lawsuit filed by the families of three other children who died in the same way: Camden Ellis and Curren Collas, both 2 years old, and Ted McGee, 23 months. "Although no deal can change the tragic events, for the sake of the family and everyone involved we are grateful that this cause has come to an end," said an Ikea spokesman. Jozef Dudek's parents will donate $ 1 million in compensation to organizations fighting to protect children from dangerous products.
