Des Moines Register: The family of an 11-year-old Marion boy who died in a ride malfunction at Adventureland filed a lawsuit in the matter today, almost a year after the tragedy. Michael Jaramillo drowned when the raft his family was riding on Adventureland’s Raging River ride overturned on July 3, 2021. The 55-page filing alleges poor maintenance and training, and that Adventureland managers’ decision to operate the ride in the face of “serious problems” led to Michael’s death and left his brother and father with severe injuries. The suit does not target the park’s current owner, Palace Entertainment, which purchased it and related assets in late 2021. What was then Adventure Lands of America Inc., owned by the Krantz family of Des Moines, continued to exist and retained legal liability in what is known as an asset sale.
