Lawsuit filed against American Airlines and federal government for DC midair crash
One man's family affected by the recent tragic plane crash near Washington, D.C., is taking legal action against the airlines and the federal government, with more families expected to join. The crash, on Jan. 29, resulted in the loss of 67 lives, marking it as the deadliest aviation disaster in the U.S. in over twenty years. The lawsuit filed by Casey Crafton's widow is the first to hold the U.S. Army, the Federal Aviation Administration, American Airlines, and its regional partner, PSA Airlines, responsible for the deaths. The complaint asserts multiple safety oversights as contributors to the incident. Families believe in seeking justice to honor their loved ones and foster safety improvements in the aviation sector. Despite ongoing investigations, the affected families are also advocating for policy changes through engagement with lawmakers and demanding greater accountability from relevant authorities.
