TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — A Tampa Bay family is calling on lawmakers to fix a loophole in a Florida law that prevents certain loved ones from suing for medical malpractice. Lawmakers heard emotional testimony regarding Florida's Wrongful Death Act (WDA) at Wednesday's Hillsborough County Legislative Delegation meeting. 'I have watched my daughter beg for answers about the last moments of her dad's life,' Sherry Hunt said. Hunt's ex-husband, Keith Davis died about two years ago following a case of alleged medical malpractice in Brandon.
