U.S. Senator Daniel K. Akaka (D-HI), Chairman of the Veterans' Affairs Committee, released the following statement today, about last night's ABC news special on Anchor/Reporter Bob Woodruff's recovery from injuries he suffered as a result of an insurgent roadside bomb attack in Iraq, and the plight of many U.S. war veterans suffering from similar traumatic brain injuries:

Tort lawyer is needed when civil wrongs are done
Torts fall into three general categories: intentional torts (e.g., intentionally hitting a person); negligent torts (causing an accident by failing to obey traffic rules); and strict liability torts (e.g., liability for making and selling defective products). Intentional torts are those wrongs which the defendant knew or should have known would occur through their actions or inactions.
