North Dakota Drug Informant’s Family Sues for Wrongful Death

The family of a North Dakota college student who was a confidential informant for a drug task force filed a wrongful death lawsuit Monday accusing a sheriff's department, a deputy and the county of failing to ensure the 20-year-old's safety. The body of Andrew Sadek was found exactly two years ago in the Red River, which separates North Dakota from Minnesota , not far from where he attended college in Wahpeton.
