A court in the United States orders a ghost gun manufacturer to pay more than $100 million following the death of a Kentucky teenager who bought one of its pistol-building kits online, according to reporting from multiple outlets. The ruling is described as historic, involving liability tied to the sale of a kit marketed to allow customers to assemble firearms themselves. The deceased teen obtained the company’s product through online purchase, and the lawsuit links the kit to the shooting that resulted in the teenager’s death. The order requires the company to pay damages exceeding $100 million, with the verdict reflecting findings about the company’s responsibility in connection with the firearm’s use. The reporting focuses on the size of the award and the broader significance for companies that sell firearm parts or kits that can be assembled into functional guns. The articles describe the decision as a notable development in litigation over “ghost guns,” which generally refers to firearms assembled from parts and may lack serial numbers. The exact breakdown of damages and the legal reasoning are not detailed in the provided excerpts.
