A Texas grand jury on Thursday, June 29, declined to press criminal charges against rapper Travis Scott and five others over a 2021 crowd crush at a music festival that left 10 dead and injured thousands, prosecutors said. | Reuters
“Now that this chapter is closed, we hope for the government efforts to focus on what is most important—stopping future heartbreaking tragedies like Astroworld from ever occurring again,” Schaffer said in a statement.“Brent did everything they could to run a safe festival,” Silberstein’s lawyer Christopher Downey said.The probe stemmed from a deadly surge of fans at Astroworld in Houston, where thousands were injured when the over-capacity crowd pressed forward as Scott took the stage.
The plaintiffs allege Scott, Live Nation and more than two dozen other defendants let too many people into the venue despite knowing the risks because they wanted the concert to appear packed.At least 4,900 fans were injured, according to lawyers representing victims in lawsuits against Scott and the organizers.
