The family of an American killed in the Ethiopian Airlines crash is suing Boeing and the FAA. 'The blame rests squarely on Boeing,' the victim's brother, Adnaan Stumo, tells jimsciutto.
The family of an American woman who died in last month's Ethiopian Airlines crash has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Boeing, Ethiopian Airlines and a Delaware company alleged to have manufactured a defective part of the plane.
The lawsuit was filed in federal court in Chicago on Thursday by the family of Samya Stumo, 24. According to a press release from the family's attorneys, Stumo was traveling for her job with ThinkWell, a Washington, DC health systems development organization, when the Boeing 737 Max 8 went down on March 10, killing all 157 people on board. Samya Stumo, who was killed in the Ethiopian Airlines crash last month, is seen in this photo shared by the Clifford Law Offices of Chicago.
