“He should be in a training facility in his comfort zone,” family lawyer John Carpenter told reporters at a press conference on Monday, in which the lawsuit was announced. “And only because the county of Los Angeles, the Sheriff department, did not meet more orders from Cal/Osha, did not meet the instructions from the manufacturer Inveris and (the) flammable shooting powder over time that accumulated that caused his death.
