Our Legal Take

Hotel 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 shooting may have been prevented.

  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on or near property? What security measures, such as gated-entry, bright lighting, surveillance cameras, and security patrols, were in place to deter crime and protect guests at the time of 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 hotel owner or management failed to provide adequate security, the family of Jeremy Braswell may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for his wrongful death.

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.

Could This Tragedy Have Been Prevented?

Local News

Gunfire erupted outside of the K & C Short Stop gas station convenience store Tuesday afternoon, May 23, 2017, tragically claiming the life of Rita Henon in front of her young grandchildren.

According to WMAZ 13, Ms. Henon was leaving the “K & C Short Stop at 405 Sparta Highway” with her two grandchildren when an assailant opened fire. The suspect had apparently been “hiding behind the ice compartment” in wait, Sheriff Bill Massee told media.

Police have since charged a suspect in connection with the deadly shooting, per The Union-Recorder reports. Ms. Henon apparently had “no relationship or connection” with the alleged gunman.

Our Legal Take

Gas station 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 tragedy may have been prevented.

  • Surveillance cameras reportedly show the suspect “hiding” on property prior to the shooting. Were gas station staff or management monitoring these surveillance cameras at the time?
  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on or near property? If so, were any additional security precautions, such as security patrols, implemented by the gas station owner or management?

A recent study by GMAC Insurance confirms what our personal injury law firm has long known…Georgia’s roadways are among the most unsafe in the nation. The following article was posted Atlanta Journal Constitution, detailing the results of the GMAC study:
Peach State motorists ranked 32nd in the sixth annual GMAC Insurance survey with a 76.7 score (out of 100) — below the national average but a significant improvement from a year ago, when Georgia drivers ranked 47th out of the 50 states. Overall the study showed that nearly one in five licensed motorists – roughly 38 million Americans – would fail a written driver’s test if taken today.

Kansas drivers ranked first in the nation (82.3 percent average score), with New York motorists coming in last (70 percent average score).

The survey polled 5,202 licensed Americans from 50 states and the District of Columbia. They were administered 20 questions from state Department of Motor Vehicles exams, with additional questions exploring distracting habits, such as texting behind the wheel.
