AP IMPACT: More bad wiring imperils troops in Iraq
“Sgt. Ryan Maseth, 24, of Pittsburgh. He died in January 2008, one of at least three soldiers killed while showering since the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
KBR is the target of a wrongful death lawsuit filed by Maseth’s family. They claim the company knew there were electrical problems in the building where he died, but didn’t fix them. His mother testified last year on Capitol Hill.
Army investigators have since reclassified Maseth’s death as negligent homicide caused by KBR and two of its supervisors. An Army investigator said KBR failed to ensure work was done by qualified electricians and plumbers. The case is under legal review.
‘KBR is not responsible for the electrocution deaths widely reported, including that of Staff Sgt. Ryan Maseth,’ Heather Browne, a KBR spokeswoman, said in an e-mail.”
So… I guess its just a difference of opinion? Uh Huh.
