Breckenridge hopes to dismiss personal injury lawsuit from local disabled woman

The town of Breckenridge wants to dismiss a personal injury lawsuit from the family of a local disabled woman, who claims the town did not protect her from an alleged sexual predator living in the woods near Pinewood Village II apartments.

The town claims immunity in this case. Those apartments are town owned.

The property manager, Corum Real Estate Group, has hired insurance lawyers to manage identical claims of personal injury and negligence. Today is Corum’s deadline to respond.

The woman’s father, Mike McManus, tells Krystal 93 he will take this all the way to a Supreme Court is needed.

In the lawsuit, McManus claims his daughter was sexually assaulted more than 20 times in three years by a homeless man, Christopher Thomason. McManus says he pleaded with the town and Corum to change locks and hire security, but they did not. The suit says this negligence led to his daughter’s habitual abuse. She was evicted in 2023 and Thomason was later found guilty of harassment at her father’s house.
