Family Says No Lawyer Will Sue U.S. for Fatal Crash by Migrant

A Washington state family claims they cannot find a lawyer to take their case against the U.S. government. They are seeking damages after their brother was killed in a crash with a truck driver who was in the country illegally. The family alleges the trucker, an undocumented migrant, caused the fatal collision. They argue federal authorities failed to detain or deport the man before the crash occurred. This, they claim, makes the government liable. Their attempt to sue has hit a significant barrier. According to the family, multiple law firms have declined to represent them. Legal experts suggest such cases face high hurdles due to laws protecting government discretion in immigration enforcement. The family says their goal is accountability and policy change. They want to ensure similar tragedies are prevented. The government has not commented on the pending legal matter.
