Why would the DJ get sued? It's not like they knew it was unsafe, these fakes are designed to look real and are advertised as real and readily available [from third party sellers] on Amazon. Most people expect things they buy from major retailers to be safe.

100 people die? Trust me, everyone's getting sued:

The DJ should assume his equipment is going to catch fire and be prepared to deal with it. For example, why was flammable material near the power supply?
I'm being a little unfair with this example because nightclubs are particularly dangerous. Even so, how many people here take their electronics to bed? Are you sure the power supply did not get covered with clothes or a blanket?
