Mamie Laverock's mother demands ‘accountability’ after actress's fall
Laverock was placed on life support after sustaining severe injuries in a fall on May 26, according to the actress’s GoFundMe page.
Laverock "was escorted out of a secure unit of the hospital and taken up to a balcony walkway from which she fell five stories," Rockmann and Compton wrote at the time. "She sustained life-threatening injuries, has undergone multiple extensive surgeries and is currently on life support. We are all devastated, in shock, at this intensely difficult time."
The actress had been in "intensive treatment for the past two weeks" following a May 11 hospitalization in Winnipeg, Canada, for an undisclosed "medical emergency," per Laverock's GoFundMe. She was subsequently transferred to a hospital in Vancouver.

A few days following Laverock’s fall, Rockmann told the Los Angeles Times that the fall was not "intended" nor was it a suicide attempt. She added that the actress's family was moving forward with legal action for negligence.
"This is an absolute miracle, and there will be accountability,” Rockmann told the outlet. “We have a case. All we care about is that Mamie can make a recovery and that she’s alive and that she’s fighting and that she’s strong.”
