Weslaco cheerleader family filing amended wrongful death lawsuit, energy drink distributors seeking dismissal
· KRGV (NBC 5)
The family of Larissa Rodriguez, a Weslaco cheerleader who died in October 2025, is amending their wrongful death lawsuit against energy drink distributors Glazer’s Beer and Beverage, LLC, and Glazer’s Beer and Beverage of Texas, LLC. This follows the distributors' motion to dismiss the case, claiming the lawsuit lacks merit and that Rodriguez misused the product. The family contends that the energy drinks, linked to her death due to caffeine intake, were improperly marketed. An attorney for the family stated they will respond legally, while a judge has yet to set a date for the dismissal ruling.
