Midland County Car Accident on FM 1788: What Happened, What It Means, and What to Do Next If you are reading this from a chair at Midland Memorial Hospital, or from a kitchen table in Midland County at two in the morning, we know what brought you here. Someone you love was cut out of a vehicle on Farm-to-Market Road 1788. The Midland Fire Department came with the tools — the Jaws of Life, the hydraulic spreaders, the ram — and they spent minutes that felt like hours pulling that person free from the wreckage. Now they are in a hospital bed, and you are fielding calls from an insurance adjuster who sounds friendly and is not. You have questions. We have answers, and we are going to give them to you straight, because that is what you need right now — not a sales pitch, but the truth about what just happened to your family and what comes next.

Midland, Texas Shooting: Legal Rights of Victims and Families After the June 2026 Mass Shooting If you are reading this from a chair beside a bed at Midland Memorial Hospital, or from a kitchen table where a chair is now empty, we are writing to you. Not at you — to you. What happened on that commercial corridor west of downtown Midland on the morning of June 12, 2026, was not an act of God, and the legal system has more to offer you than the criminal case that ended when the shooter was found dead in an abandoned veterinary clinic a few hours later. One person is gone. Ten more are injured — five were discharged, four went to surgery, and as the first reports circulated, one was still in the operating suite. The man who did this is dead. The question that remains is whether anyone else is responsible, and the answer — in Texas law, in the evidence that is dying right now on the DVRs of every business along that corridor, and in the duty that commercial property owners owed the people walking past their buildings — is that someone else may well be. We are…

Ector County Intoxicated Manslaughter: Your Family’s Civil Rights After a DUI Death The jury has spoken. The person who drove drunk and killed your family member has been convicted of intoxicated manslaughter, and the criminal system has done what it was built to do — it punished the person responsible. But punishment is not the same as justice, and a prison sentence does not pay for a life. If you are reading this at 2 a.m., after seeing the court disposition or hearing the verdict, you are in the exact moment this page was written for. The criminal case is over. Your civil case is just beginning — and the conviction you just watched happen is the single most powerful asset your family has. Here is the first thing you need to know, and we want you to hear it before anything else: the criminal conviction does not close the door on accountability. It opens a second one. The criminal system punished the driver. The civil system is the only mechanism through which your family can be made whole — and in Texas, a jury conviction for intoxicated manslaughter means the question of fault has already been proven beyond a…

Lake Boehmer Toxic Contamination & Environmental Litigation Attorneys: Attorney911 Pursues the Legacy Oilfield Operators Behind the 2,600-Foot Abandoned Well Gushing 200 Gallons a Minute of Hydrogen-Sulfide-Laden Water Causing Headaches and Nausea in Residents Near Imperial, Pecos County, Texas, We Trace the Corporate Successors to the 1940s Drillers Who Left Unplugged Wells and a 1951 Plugging Pledge Unfulfilled, We Secure the Water-Quality Data, Satellite Time-Lapse and Agency Correspondence Before Records Age and Entities Dissolve, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider, the Firm Has Recovered $50M+ for Injury Victims, Texas Nuisance, Trespass and Toxic-Tort Doctrine With the Continuing-Nuisance Rule That Resets the Clock on Each Day the Discharge Persists — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

Imperial, Pecos County, Texas Toxic Contamination: Who Is Legally Liable for Lake Boehmer’s Poisoned Water, Hydrogen Sulfide Gas, and Aquifer Damage? You live near Imperial, or you ranch land in Pecos County, and a toxic lake that did not exist twenty years ago is now sixty acres wide and growing. The water is three times saltier than the ocean. The air smells like rotten eggs. Your groundwater — the water you, your livestock, and your neighbors depend on — is being poisoned by something the state of Texas says is nobody’s problem. Four agencies have been passing this case to each other since 2003. The Railroad Commission says it is a water well, not an oil well, so its hands are tied. The environmental commission says it does not have active jurisdiction over abandoned water wells. The licensing department says it can notify landowners but cannot enforce anything. The water development board does not even have the lake in its database. Meanwhile, the well keeps gushing two hundred gallons a minute of hypersaline, hydrogen-sulfide-laden water into the shallow aquifer fifty feet below the surface, and nobody has plugged it. What you may not know is that someone — decades ago…

Midland County Loop 250 Fatal Crash: What the Families of Three People Killed in a Single-Vehicle Accident Need to Know Right Now If you are reading this because someone you love was in that Ford Mustang on Loop 250 in the early hours of January 2, 2026, we want you to hear something first: the passengers in that car — your daughter, your son, your friend, your partner — bore zero responsibility for what happened. They got in a car and trusted it to carry them home. That trust was broken, and the law gives their families rights that are entirely separate from anything the driver did or did not do. You are not suing your loved one’s friend. You are pursuing the systems that were supposed to protect them and did not. Three people are dead. A twenty-year-old driver was transported to Midland Memorial Hospital and pronounced dead. A passenger was ejected from the vehicle and pronounced dead at the scene. A third person was found dead and has not yet been identified. The Texas Department of Public Safety is investigating. The vehicle caught fire after impact. Those facts — a post-collision fire, a passenger ejection, a barrier sequence…

Midland Active Shooter — Your Legal Rights After the June 2026 Mass Shooting If you are reading this at 2 a.m. in Midland, Texas — because your husband went to work Friday morning for the City of Midland and never came home, or because you are one of the ten people who heard the shots and felt the bullets and are now sitting in a hospital bed wondering how you will pay for the surgeries, or because someone you love is one of those people — we are talking to you. Not to a general audience. To you. What happened on June 12, 2026, in southeast Midland, moving across the southern portion of the city to the 4600 block of West Wall Street, was not just a crime. It was a catastrophe that left one man dead — Ed Scott, a city employee, a husband, a father, a man the community itself called “a good person all the way around” — and ten more people injured, some of them catastrophically. The shooter is dead. The Texas Rangers are investigating. And in the silence after the sirens, the question that no news article will answer for you is the one that…

Midland-Odessa Mass Shooting: Civil Liability When Seven Lives Are Lost and Twenty More Are Changed Forever You are here because something broke that cannot be fixed. A phone call came, or a text, or a knock on the door, and since that moment the world has been a different shape. Seven families in Midland and Odessa got that call on August 31, 2019. More than twenty other people survived with injuries that will shape the rest of their lives — gunshot wounds, shattered bones, organs that will never work the same way, and a kind of psychological damage that does not appear on any scan. The man who pulled the trigger is dead. The criminal system has done what it can do. And now you are sitting at a kitchen table — or in a hospital room, or next to someone who is never coming home — and you need to know whether anyone else answers for what happened. That is what this page is about. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC — and we handle wrongful death and catastrophic injury cases in Texas. What follows is not a news summary.

Odessa Mass Shooting: Legal Rights of Victims and Families You are reading this because someone you love was caught in the August 31, 2019 shooting that tore through the Midland-Odessa corridor — seven people dead, twenty-two injured, a seventeen-month-old girl shot in the face. Maybe you are a family member who lost someone. Maybe you are a survivor still carrying shrapnel. Maybe you are the parent of that toddler, reading at two in the morning, trying to understand what the law can do for your child now. This page is written for you. Not as a brochure. As a roadmap from people who do this work. Here is the first thing you need to hear, and it is honest: the legal landscape for this incident is difficult for most adult victims because Texas gives you two years to file a personal-injury or wrongful-death lawsuit, and that window closed in August 2021. But that is not the end of the story. Texas law tolls — pauses — the statute of limitations for minors, meaning a child injured in this rampage may still have a viable claim years after the adults’ deadlines passed. And for any claim that was timely filed before…

Midland, TX Shooting: Legal Rights of Victims and Families After the Active Shooter Incident If you are reading this page, you or someone you love was in Midland when the gunfire started. You heard the shots — maybe forty of them, maybe more. You may have been at Midland Memorial Hospital, waiting for surgery, or waiting for news about someone who was. One person did not come home. Nine others were hurt, four badly enough for the operating room. The shooter is dead. The police have cleared the scene. The news trucks will move on.
