The families of campers and counselors who died in the Hill Country Floods at Camp Mystic on July 4 have filed a lawsuit alleging gross negligence and reckless disregard for safety by the camp and its owners.

The lawsuit, filed in Travis County District Court, seeks accountability for what the families called an “entirely preventable tragedy” that claimed the lives of 27 campers and counselors.

The families bringing the suit include the parents of five campers and two counselors: Warren and Patricia Bellows, Blake and Caitlin Bonner, Matthew and Wendie Childress, Ryan and Elizabeth DeWitt, John and Andrea Ferruzzo, Ben and Natalie Landry, and Lindsey McCrory.
