Yes, it is true. There was 1 person in Germany, 3 in the US (one from michigan and 2 in california I believe), 2 from Canada and one from Japan. It was very sad. There was talk of prosecuting George Lucas for manslaughter but I guess his crack team of lawyers took care of it. We can only hope that when The Clone Wars animated film comes out we don't have a repeat scenario.

Err... was that dark humor? Quite frankly, if I was Lucas, and someone brought those charges against me, I would personally call all the families in question and LAUGH. What can I say? I have zero tolerance for frivolous prosecution.
