Sugarland Named In Stage Collapse Legal Papers

Sugarland have been named as a defendant in a potential lawsuit over that deadly stage collapse at the Indianapolis Fair. They’re in a notice sent to the state attorney general. The legal paperwork was sent by the family of 22-year-old Jennifer Haskell. Sugarland members, agents and employees are among 15 potential defendants. Sugarland and their manager also are named in a tort claim by the parents of Haskell’s best friend, Alina Bigjohny. Haskell and Bigjohny were among seven people who died after the stage rigging collapsed during strong winds before the August 13th concert. More than 40 others were injured. Sugarland was ready to take the stage that day but their tour manager held them back because of weather. Seconds later, winds came through and the stage collapsed.
