Dead cheerleader's family awarded nearly $700K

WAILUKU, Hawaii (AP) - June 1, 2008

Arbitrator Gerald Sekiya says in his decision May 23 that Susanne Sadler must pay the family and estate of 18-year-old Lauren Crossan.

The cheerleader from Randolph died in 2004 while she was in Hawaii to perform at the Hula Bowl. She had a blood-alcohol level more than twice the state's legal limit for driving.

An attorney for Sadler declined to comment.
