Nightclub patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided to those at the property and whether this shooting may have been prevented.

  • What security measures, such as weapons screenings, surveillance cameras and security patrols, were in place in and outside the club at the time of the shooting?
  • Were any efforts made to deescalate the situation and safely and separately remove all involved in the initial dispute from the property, prior to an escalation to violence?

Our Legal Take

Apartment complex residents and guests have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided to those at the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.

  • How did the gunman gain entry to the property? What parking lot security measures, such as gated-entry, bright lighting, surveillance cameras, and security patrols, were in place to deter crime and protect residents at the time of the shooting?
  • Where was apartment management and security at the time of the initial altercation? Were any attempts made by apartment staff to call police or deescalate the situation prior to the shooting?

By law, property owners in Georgia are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm.  Should the facts of this matter reveal that the apartment complex owner or management failed to provide adequate security, the family of Deante Benton may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for his wrongful death. Additionally, the other victim of this unconscionable shooting may also pursue legal claims for his injuries.

Based upon its long, extensive, and successful experience in handling negligent security cases against property owners in the State of Georgia, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed.
