Travis Scott and others involved with the tragedy that occurred at Astroworld have been hit with a hefty $2 billion lawsuit.
According to the NY Post, a Texas attorney filed a $2 billion lawsuit on behalf of 282 victims of the deadly Astroworld Festival,
“The defendants stood to make an exorbitant amount of money off this event, and they still chose to cut corners, cut costs, and put attendees at risk,” attorney Thomas Henry said.
“My clients want to ensure the defendants are held responsible for their actions, and they want to send the message to all performers, event organizers, and promoters that what happened at Astroworld cannot happen again,” he added.

The lawsuit is seeking up to $2 billion in damages, and it names Travis Scott, Drake, Live Nation, Apple Music, and NRG Stadium in the suit.
While previously speaking to Hollywood Life, Henry said,
“They have injuries ranging from heart attacks, to heart issues, to brain injuries, to spinal injuries, to broken bones, broken legs, eye injuries, internal organ injuries, bruising and bleeding.”
“Those who were injured are still very traumatized because they had to step over dead bodies. They didn’t have a choice because there was nowhere to move. These people were trapped. The crushing effect was so heavy and so hard. They couldn’t breathe. They couldn’t get out.”
