The families of victims from the tragic Camp Mystic floods have filed a lawsuit against the Texas Christian camp, alleging gross negligence and failure to protect the children under their care. The devastating flash floods during the 4 July holiday claimed the lives of 27 children and counselors. The lawsuit, filed in Austin, seeks over $1 million in damages and accuses the camp owners of ignoring flood warnings and failing to evacuate campers promptly. The camp’s decision to partially reopen next year has further fueled outrage among the victims’ families. The lawsuit states, ‘These young girls died because a for-profit camp put profit over safety.’ The camp’s lawyer expressed empathy but contested some allegations, citing the unprecedented nature of the flood. Texas lawmakers have since passed legislation to prevent such tragedies, including restrictions on camps in flood-risk zones and mandatory emergency training.
