Harking back to an alleged February 2023 incident, Salvatore Musumeci Jr claims he was injured in a swimming pool incident at Trump National Doral Miami. Citing negligence, the New Jersey man's lawsuit against the Trump Organization and Trump International Hotel Group says that his injury was attributed to a mismarked pool, leading him to believe it was deeper than it actually was.

New Jersey man files lawsuit against Trump Hotel

The plaintiff claims that he jumped feet-first into a swimming pool that was reportedly marked as being 6 feet 3 inches deep. However, he ultimately sustained “serious and permanent personal injuries,” as noted by the outlet, due to the pool being just 3 feet 6 inches deep.

Musumeci Jr's formal complaint states that the Doral Hotel pool incident became the cause of his suffering while he was out on business. Holding Trump's business banners accountable, the man is said to be suing them for unspecified damages. He also asserts that his painful injuries pushed him to rely on medical treatment, resulting in expensive medical expenses.
