Widow sues Santa Monica over sheriff husband's death
A wrongful death lawsuit has been filed by the widow of a sheriff killed in a grenade explosion during a training exercise, alleging that the City of Santa Monica failed to provide proper information about the device beforehand. The incident occurred when three deputies from the LA County Sheriff's Department's Arson Explosives Detail were handling the grenade, which appeared inactive but subsequently detonated, causing the death of Deputy William Osborn and two colleagues. The lawsuit claims that Santa Monica personnel mischaracterized the grenade as inert despite insufficient evidence, leading to the explosion, and raises issues about training and handling procedures for explosive devices.
