But I saw a different article that said the gym continued to stay open even while the coroner was collecting the body and staff just pretended everything was normal.
I can’t imagine no one sues over this. Imagine going to the gym, it smelling especially gnarly, and then finding out days later you were breathing in a rotting corpse while doing your miles on a treadmill.
There was a needle so likely OD.

I’m amazed nobody 1) noticed the smell 2) didn’t realise someone had been using a tanning bed for that long.
Death has a very specific smell. It’s not one you forget quickly.
Good luck sueing, I’m sure they signed a doc that says you can’t sue because some made up reason.
Planet Fitness is a relatively large national chain…
Some lawyer is taking the case for a cut of it. They might not win, but they’ll sue and likely take a settlement.
I imagine Planet Fitness wouldn’t like to do discovery and list all the times their internal safety protocols failed.
