A lawsuit alleged Richard Perry was struck with a baton during a 2018 exercise, which shattered his eye socket and skull, and pushed shattered bone fragments into his brain.
SAN DIEGO - A former member of the U.S. national wrestling team who was severely injured during a training camp exercise held at Camp Pendleton has reached a $12 million settlement with the United States of America, it was announced Tuesday.
The injury nearly killed him and left him with multiple traumatic brain injuries, skull fractures and"permanent, disfiguring, disabling injuries," according to the complaint. "Richard Perry, a national superstar wrestler, suffered severe brain injuries that ended his wrestling career and left him fighting for his life when he was placed into an unsafe military training exercise," attorney Robert Francavilla said.
According to the lawsuit, the Marine Corps and USA Wrestling encouraged Perry and other civilians to take part in a military-style exercise involving weapons that the participants weren't adequately trained to use. The event was partly intended as an initiative to recruit wrestlers into the Marine Corps, according to the suit.
