The son of an 83-year-old woman, who was tragically 'burned alive' and died in the Smokehouse Creek fire, has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against utility companies. The lawsuit claims responsibility for the elderly woman's death, citing that downed power lines sparked the wildfire which consumed over 1 million acres in the Texas Panhandle. This legal action adds to a growing number of lawsuits facing utility companies over the devastating blaze.
