The Judge has ruled that Austin Stephanos’ father is not legally liable in the 2015 disappearance of Austin Stephanos and Perry Cohen, bringing a significant development in the long-running case. The court found that his actions, including conducting a search, did not increase the risk of harm to the teens.
Guy Rubin representing Perry Cohen’s family, expressed disagreement with the ruling but confirmed the case was settled shortly before the decision. The outcome marks a complex resolution to a deeply emotional case as both sides move forward.
