Shocking news x
Very important here, she is suing for loss of inheratance,on the reservation, from the indian(insert flavor)council. What is not being talked about is her drunk husband, with others from this reservation, were probably flying in prohibited(SP?)substances.
Another thing the woman who kicked the pilots seat(not the husband) was she just bracing, ( broken ankles), or did she cause the accident? I think she did. But, why is the pilot @ fault? The wife should wonder why her husband was out with others women, and getting drunk.And according to the story, transporting booze to a no booze zone. Pilot Not @ fault. Insurance company should sue the crash victims, because they were obviously trying to circumvent the local laws, and traditions.
The pilots wife should countersue the indian council, for thier actions.

The passenger should have never been allowed on the plane. Where was security.
Her man dies in the plane crash.......but not to worry. He can be replaced with money!! Such love...........so dumb!
Sue the estate of the drunken passenger, for xsake how many people get on planes slightly off their head? So sue the family of the drunken passenger, not the pilot, who is just getting people home
