Relatives of 4 people killed with Jenni Rivera in a plane crash last
month are suing Rivera's company, alleging the singer was negligent when
she hired a faulty Learjet.
The civil lawsuit filed Thursday in Los Angeles seeks unspecified
damages from Jenni Rivera Enterprises. It claims Rivera picked the
aircraft owned by Las Vegas-based Starwood Management and should have
known the state of the plane and the pilots' status.
Rivera's publicist, makeup artist, stylist and lawyer, along with the
two pilots, were among the seven people killed when the aircraft
crashed Dec. 9 in northern Mexico.
Authorities haven't determined what caused the crash, but the lawsuit
says Rivera's company and three other companies that own or once owned
the Learjet 25 should have known the plane was not safe to fly.
It also says the companies knew that the pilots did not have the necessary training to safely fly the plane.
