JKN Universe

According to E! News, nearly one year after the former Miss Jamaica (Henry) fell during the Miss Universe preliminary evening gown category, she is suing the Miss Universe Organization and its parent companies JKN Universe and Legacy Holding Group USA for negligence and related claims. The Sept. 21 filing with the Delaware Superior Court says she fell about five feet through an unmarked opening in the stage, suffered a traumatic brain injury, and requires ongoing care; she also alleges Miss Grand International was responsible for staging, lighting, and safety, though the Miss Universe Organization retained control over those factors. E! News has contacted the involved parties for comment, and MUO says it has not been served with the lawsuit and details its venue and safety responsibilities in Thailand.
