(-23) TURBULENCE ENCOUNTERED DURING DESCENT INTO FORT LAUDERDALE AIRPORT.  THREE FLIGHT ATTENDANTS TREATED AT A LOCAL HOSPITAL AND RELEASED.  TWO PASSENGERS TREATED AT LOCAL HOSPITAL.  ONE OF THE PASSENGERS WAS RELEASED THE SAME DAY.  THE OTHER PASSENGER REMAINED IN THE HOSPITAL.  THIS PASSENGER NEVER REGAINED CONSCOUSNESS AFTER THE EVENT, AND PASSED AWAY ON AUGUST 13, 2008.  THE CORONER DETERMINED THAT THE PASSENGER EXPIRED DUE TO PRIOR EXISTING MEDICAL ISSUES.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
