In the 2018 crash that killed four Marines, attorney Casey is suing the companies that supplied the part implicated in the crash.
“These were young men who had everything to look forward to. In the case of our client, they left young children,” Casey said. “So it’s devastating, and it’s unnecessary and it should have been avoided.”
In most cases, families cannot sue the military directly. Citing the report, Casey’s firm has filed suit against the part suppliers Kampi Components Co., Inc. of Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania, and Diamond Rubber Products Co. of Birmingham, Alabama, stating the part did not meet the military’s specifications. After the crash, the Marines issued a bulletin to remove the part from the other Super Stallions still in the fleet.
