I saw it mentioned on the news this morning and have tried googling, but keep coming up with other stories.

What I heard was it happened in or near Chicago, she worked at a hospital and they insisted she work late, and she told them she was exhausted. They gave her a hard time and so she did the work. Driving hime she died in a car crash on the way home. Her family is suing the hospital for insisting she work. I don’t know if she was asked to stay late after already working her shift, or to come in and do an additional shift to her normal hours.

The lawyer who commented on the story said they probably can’t win the lawsuit, but I want to follow it. Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.
