Aqua Dots Recall Prompted by Injuries to Children

A chemical coating on Aqua Dots converts to a powerful “date rape” drug when ingested. Two children in the United States slipped into a coma after swallowing some of the Aqua Dots. As a result Spin Master, manufacturer of Aqua Dots, has recalled 4.2 million Aqua Dot products, which were manufactured in (you guessed it) China.

Millions of toys sold in the U.S. and manufactured in China have been recalled due to high lead content (usually in the paint). Now Chinese manufacturers are coating products meant for children with a “date rape” drug. What will be next?

Legally, Spin Master is liable for any injuries to children that are caused by Aqua Dots. We are using “caused” in the legal sense, which means it has to be more probable than not that Aqua Dots caused a specific injury. We are accepting Aqua Dots lawsuit cases. If your child has been seriously injured by Aqua Dots, please contact us toll-free at 1-888-377-8900 or submit the online consultation form for review by one of our nationally-recognized product liability lawyers.
