The family of a sexual assault victim has filed a lawsuit against a Texas McDonald’s for hiring a registered sex offender who raped his 15-year-old co-worker near a dumpster outside the restaurant where they both worked.
Eric Champagne Price, 29, lured the girl to an area behind a McDonald’s in Hearne, nearly 90 miles northeast of Austin, on April 16, 2023, and sexually assaulted her before he returned to work as if nothing happened. The lawsuit alleged the company knew Price had been listed on Texas’ sex offender website and placed “the wolf amongst the sheep.”
