Midland, Texas Mass Shooting — Legal Rights of Victims and Families If you are reading this page, you or someone you love was in Midland on the morning of June 12, 2026, when a fugitive armed with a firearm opened fire on bystanders and responding police officers. One person — Edward Randall Scott, 62, of Midland — was killed. Ten others were wounded. Nine were taken to Midland Memorial Hospital, where four were rushed into emergency surgery and five were admitted in stable condition and later discharged. The suspected shooter was found dead inside an abandoned veterinary clinic after a four-hour standoff. You are probably sitting with a mixture of grief, anger, and confusion — and you may be hearing from people who sound sympathetic but are not on your side. This page exists to give you what nobody has given you yet: a clear, honest explanation of what the law allows your family to do, what evidence is disappearing right now, and what the path forward looks like.

Ector County Truck Rollover Fatality: Your Rights After an Airborne Crash Someone you love is gone. The truck went off the road, went airborne, and rolled — and now you are being told, in so many words, that it was a single-vehicle accident. That phrase carries a quiet accusation the insurance company wants you to accept: that the driver was responsible, and there is nobody else to hold accountable. We need you to hear something different before anything else disappears. A single-vehicle crash does not mean no one is responsible. Manufacturers who build unstable vehicles, road authorities who leave dangerous culverts unmarked, employers who send workers out in poorly maintained trucks — every one of them can bear legal accountability for a death that looks, on the surface, like nobody’s fault but the driver’s. The word “airborne” is an engineering red flag. Trucks do not fly on their own. Something launched that vehicle — a road feature, a mechanical failure, a tire that came apart — and finding what that something was is the first job. That evidence is sitting in a tow yard right now, and it can be legally destroyed within weeks. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello…

The I-20 Crash Near Sweetwater: What Happened and What It Means for You You are reading this because something happened on Interstate 20 — maybe near Sweetwater, maybe farther west toward Midland, maybe east toward Abilene — and you need to know what comes next. A crash involving tractor-trailers on this stretch of West Texas highway is not a fender-bender. It is a life-altering event that brings medical bills, lost income, insurance adjusters who sound friendly and are not, and a clock that started ticking the moment the metal stopped moving. We are going to tell you everything we know about what happened on this road, what the law says about it, and what you need to do — starting with the things that are already disappearing. On December 22, 2018, a serious crash occurred on Interstate 20 near Sweetwater, in Nolan County, Texas. Two tractor-trailers and a pickup truck collided. The driver of the pickup sustained a bleeding head injury, cracked ribs, and a collapsed lung — a condition called tension pneumothorax that kills people who do not get relief within minutes. He was trapped inside his vehicle. An off-duty Army sergeant from Fort Bliss stopped at the scene,…

When a Highway Takes Someone You Love in West Texas You are reading this because someone you love did not come home. Maybe your husband did not survive the wreck. Maybe your wife is in a hospital bed in Lubbock with broken ribs and a head injury, and the doctors say she will recover, but the word “recovery” feels like it belongs to a different universe from the one you are living in right now. Maybe you are sitting in a hospital waiting room, or at a kitchen table at 2 a.m., and you are starting to realize that the legal clock is already running even though the funeral has not happened yet and your loved one cannot have visitors. We know this moment. Not because we have read about it, but because we have sat across the table from families in it, here in Texas, for decades. The first thing we want you to know is this: the fact that you are looking for information right now, while everything is still raw, means you are already doing the right thing. The second thing is harder: the evidence that will determine what happened to your family is already disappearing. Not…

Fatal Pedestrian Accident on Odessa’s Loop 338: What Happened and What Your Family Can Do Your daughter was fifteen years old.

Midland dirt bike crash leaves 21-year-old dead – CBS7

Midland Dirt Bike Crash: Your Family’s Rights After a Fatal Stop-Sign Intersection Collision If you found this page, someone you love is gone. Maybe it was yesterday. Maybe it was hours ago and you are sitting in a kitchen in Midland at two in the morning, scrolling through your phone, trying to understand how a 21-year-old can be alive on Raymond Street one minute and gone the next. You are reading this because the police report says he was going fast, and the dirt bike was not street-legal, and you can already hear the insurance adjuster’s voice forming those words into a story that blames him. We need you to hear something before anything else: a stop sign is not a shield. The person who pulled out in front of him had a legal duty that did not disappear because the oncoming vehicle was small, or fast, or unfamiliar to them. That duty is where your family’s case begins, and this page is where you learn what it means, what it is worth, and what is already disappearing while you read. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm. We handle wrongful death claims and catastrophic injury cases across Texas,…

You know the sound of the phone call. You know the drive to the hospital, or the drive to the scene, or the wait for a name.

The Air Your Family Breathes in Ector County — and What the Law Says About It You live in Odessa, or outside the city limits in Ector County, and you have been breathing the air in the heart of the Permian Basin oil boom. Maybe your child’s asthma has gotten worse and you cannot figure out why. Maybe you wake up with a sore throat and a headache more mornings than not. Maybe you smell the rotten-egg odor that drifts off the well pads when the wind shifts, and you have wondered whether the flares you can see burning on the horizon at night are doing something to your family. A published environmental report used the same air-dispersion modeling that regulators use and found that approximately 35 percent of Ector County exceeded the federal health standard for sulfur dioxide between 2014 and 2017. The study identified Occidental Permian as the top emitter in the region, with 74 facilities releasing 10.6 million pounds of sulfur dioxide across 500 unauthorized incidents in a single year. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC, and this page is written for the one person reading it at 2 a.m. who is trying to…

Odessa Sulfur Dioxide Exposure: Your Legal Rights When the Air Itself Is the Injury You live in Odessa, and there is something in the air your family has been breathing. Maybe you have felt it before you ever read about it — the cough that started and never left, the child whose inhaler refills kept getting closer together, the parent whose breathing seemed to get worse every year the pumpjacks multiplied across the horizon. You may have wondered whether the air itself was the reason. A third-party environmental analysis has now put numbers to what you suspected: in 2017 alone, oil and gas companies illegally discharged 5.3 million pounds of sulfur dioxide into the air of Ector County — every pound of it in violation of the federal pollution permits those companies hold. The analysis found that roughly 35 percent of Ector County experienced sulfur dioxide levels above the federal health standard. And the state agency charged with protecting that air has installed exactly one sulfur dioxide monitor for the entire 75,000-square-mile Permian Basin. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm. We handle toxic tort and environmental exposure cases in Texas. This page is not a sales pitch. It…
