Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna, and seven others passed away in a tragic helicopter crash on January 26th. The accident shocked the entire world and since then, we have all been in mourning of the lives that were lost on that tragic day. People have been searching for answers as to why the crash happened. What is known, however, is that it was incredibly foggy that day and that no aircraft should have been flying as it simply wasn’t safe.
With this context in mind, Vanessa Bryant filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Island Express which is the company in charge of the helicopter. Now, the families of Alyssa Altobelli and Christina Mauser are also filing similar lawsuits, citing negligence on the part of Island Express.
