Could this fatal Beaumont hotel shooting have been prevented and are justice and compensation available to Mr. Eaglin’s family?
Local News
Gunfire erupted outside “America’s Best Value Inn located at 1155 Interstate 10 South” Friday morning, December 21, 2018, according to 12 News.
Police told The Beaumont Enterprise 30-year-old Reginald Eaglin was discovered “unresponsive near a vehicle at the inn’s parking lot.”
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 on the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.
- What security measures, such as guarded entry, guest screening, surveillance cameras, and visible security personnel, were in place to deter crime and protect Mr. Eaglin at the time of the shooting?
Generally, property owners 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 to protect those on its premises, Reginald Eaglin’s family may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss.
Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, 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. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim’s family retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
