California Couple Receives $2-million-dollar Bedbug Payday

According to court records, Californians Alvaro Gutierrez and Ramiro Sanchez said they were “massacre(d) from bed bugs” when they stayed at a Ventura hotel in February 2020. “The bed bugs latched onto the Plaintiffs while they slept, sucked their blood until they were gorged,” their lawsuit reads. The pair were awarded two million dollars in compensatory and punitive damages. It’s believed this could be the biggest legal payout over bed bugs. The hotel in question is considering an appeal.
