The daughter of woman who died while driving home from a doctors appointment during a June 2021 heat dome event is suing the big fossil fuel companies for wrongful death. The air conditioner of Juliana Leon's car stopped working and though she drove with the windows down she still became over by the heat and died of hyperthermia, according to the complaint.
Heartbreaking and necessary. Today Misti Leon filed a lawsuit against seven oil and gas companies for the wrongful death of her mother, Juliana Leon, during the 2021 PNW heatdome. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/29/c ...
