Former Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Carl Crawford is in deep legal trouble.

Carl Crawford, who played for the Los Angeles Dodgers between 2013 and 2016, is being sued for more than $1 million for a double drowning that occurred in his Texas home on May 16.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ Sports, the mother of one of the drowning victims claims the former MLB star should be held liable for her son’s death. The boy, 5-years-old, was a guest at Crawford’s home when he fell into an outdoor pool, later drowning along with a young woman who tried to jump in to save him.
