Having determined that §§ 47a-7 and 47a-8, when read together, and § 47a-54f provide for civil damages pursuant to a claim of strict liability, we must now determine whether the trial court properly directed verdicts in favor of the defendants on the counts sounding in strict liability. The question is whether, on the facts presented, the jury could have legally and logically reached a different conclusion, namely that the defendants were strictly liable. We must determine whether the jury reasonably and logically could have found a statutory violation, proximate causation and damages.
