On July 1, 2017, 22 year old Gianna S of Sewell, New Jersey was riding as a passenger on a 2016 Yamaha Waverunner in the seat position closest to the rear of the watercraft. The operator had begun to gradually accelerate the waverunner when Gianna slid off the seat, falling directly behind the waverunner in close proximity to the jet drive propulsion system. Upon landing in the water, the powerful blast from the jet drive penetrated her lower body orifices, causing mutilating injuries to her vagina, anus, perineum, rectum, colon, and other internal organs.
Gianna S is being represented by the Mazzola Law Firm in collaboration with Ernest Alvino of Hoffman DiMuzio.
