"The defendants stood to make an exorbitant amount of money off of this event, and they still chose to cut corners, cut costs, and put attendees at risk," said Thomas J. Henry. "My clients want to ensure the defendants are held responsible for their actions, and they want to send the message to all performers, event organizers, and promoters that what happened at Astroworld cannot happen again."
In an interview with
Hollywood Life, Henry claimed the injuries his clients sustained at the festival ranged from
heart attacks and brain injuries to broken bones and extensive bruising and bleeding. "Those who were injured are still very traumatized because they had to step over dead bodies," he said. "They didn’t have a choice because there was nowhere to move. These people were trapped. The crushing effect was so heavy and so hard.
They couldn’t breathe. They couldn’t get out."
