The man's family has also claimed that Olivia and her mom instructed him to work on the roof, even though the required safety guards and fall protection were not in place, creating what the family has claimed was an unreasonable risk of injury. Olivia had actually featured the home in a 2014 project with Vogue. According to the suit, Olivia and her mother did not give Merida the proper tools for him to work safely on the roof, and they didn't participate in a workers' compensation program. As per TMZ, the family has sued Olivia and Kim for wrongful death and is going after them for damages.
