The last listed, Navegar, Inc., of Florida, had created the TEC-9, and the Markowitzes’ lawyers argued that it had been negligent in its business practices. They wrote: They built a weapon whose purpose is to kill people, marketed it to criminals by touting its resistance to fingerprints and failed to sell the gun exclusively to law enforcement personnel.

This section about the gun was an uphill fight, since the California Supreme Court had recently ruled that a manufacturer could not be held responsible for the actions of a gunman.

On other points the lawsuit claimed that both Allison Adams and Stephen Hogg, who were lawyers, were guilty of negligence because they were aware that a teenager was being held captive, but they failed to contact authorities.

The LAPD came in for special scorn from Jeff and Susan Markowitz for their actions concerning the two 911 calls that were made shortly after Nick was grabbed off the street. According to the lawsuit, Officers Rygh and Lyons did not follow correct procedures when they failed to investigate properly the whereabouts of the van used in the kidnapping, nor did they alert other law enforcement agencies in the area.

The Lemon Tree Inn was part of the lawsuit as well because of the allegation of operating a business that helped prolong the crime. In this allegation there were points that the room should not have been obtained by Jesse Rugge, who was not twenty-one years old at the time, and that it was obvious that minors were accompanying him to the room.

One of the most contentious parts of the lawsuit sought to hold adults responsible for the actions of their children, especially the parents of Jesse Hollywood, Jesse Rugge and Graham Pressley.

With her thoughts never very far away from Nick, Susan braced herself for the first of the co-conspirators to be brought to trial, Ryan Hoyt. In some way it would be the hardest test of all for her. It was the gun in Hoyt’s hand that had ended her son’s life.
