Sugarland's Attorney Says Duo Not Responsible For Indiana State Fair Tragedy

David Drew — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 07:15:38 +0000

Based on what I've read of this tragic incident, I don't believe the duo are responsible for the stage collapse that ultimately killed fans.

Obviously, that did not happen here but the duo couldn't have know about things like concrete slabs. Do you agree?

An attorney for Sugarland denies the duo's responsibility in connection with last year's tragedy at the Indiana State Fair in Indianapolis. Seven people were killed and more than 40 injured when high winds blew down stage scaffolding and equipment prior to their Aug. 13 concert.
