Baltimore sues owner of container ship for 'criminal negligence' following Key Bridge collapse

The lawsuit filed in Federal Court claims the crew was potentially criminally negligent for leaving the dock the night of the collapse.

[@verdebusterAP]

The data recorder showed the ship had problems before leaving port
so the ship was not sea worthy and therefore negligence

Good for Baltimore and MD. Go team!

Gross negligence will invalidate the liability cap

[@jamescox7007]

The Port of Baltimore, the City of Baltimore, the state and federal government, are all responsible for allowing a shipping chanel to proceed under a bridge that has no collision protection from ships.

[@jaminova_1969]

Then again, building a bridge without adequate protection in a shipping channel is also negligent.

1. Let the federal government do the suing and fining. 2. Wait until FBI and NTSB completes their reports.
