Waterbury, CT: (Dec-11-07) The family of seventeen-year-old Tim Orefice brought a wrongful death lawsuit against Jason Secondino, Guilford Texaco, and a truck leasing company, after the boy was killed in a car accident in 2002. Tim Orefice was killed in Guilford on Jan. 25, 2002, after his car was hit by a Guilford Texaco tow truck driven by Jason Secondino. Sources stated that Secondino, Guilford Texaco, and the company which leased the truck to Guilford Texaco, were named as defendants in the suit and that it went to trial at Waterbury Superior Court. As part of a settlement reached, the family stands to receive an $18.3 million payout to resolve the wrongful death suit. The family's legal counsel stated that the award came years after the Orefice family proposed a $1 million settlement that the defendants refused.
