Vanessa Bryant has filed a wrongful death suit against the company that owned the helicopter that crashed last month in Calabasas, California, killing her husband Kobe and daughter Gigi.
The lawsuit accuses pilot Ara Zobayan of several acts of negligence — including failing to abort the flight, failing to monitor and assess the weather, and failure to keep a safe distance between natural obstacles and the helicopter.
According to TMZ, the fog was “extremely low” the day of the accident and the pilot was in “blinding conditions before the mishap.”
Vanessa is seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, as well as damages for “pre-impact” terror — for the emotional trauma Kobe and Gigi suffered in the moments before the crash.
