The lawsuit accuses the facility of gross negligence—claiming smoke alarms failed, escape routes were blocked, and critical safety measures were ignored. When the fire broke out, three people, including Donald, were trapped and died. Body camera footage showed flames engulfing the building with no alarms sounding. The home’s structure was dangerously altered, with a once-functional spiral staircase removed and foam insulation installed without required barriers. Portable heaters were found on-site, though the fire’s cause remains undetermined. The family seeks justice and compensation, demanding a jury trial to hold the facility accountable for failing to protect its residents.
