A lawsuit has been filed in the Bowie County District Court in reference to the tragic deaths almost two years ago of Megan Daniel, Katie Jo Vaughn and Ashlin Cox. The three died after the car they were riding in went off a dangerous curve on County Road 3302 near Chili Flats in western Bowie County.
The lawsuit was filed by the mothers of the three girls claiming negligence by Bowie County for failing to provide proper lighting, signage and a proper barricade at the curve in the county road where the three young ladies perished.
The body of the lawsuit reads: At all times mentioned herein, Defendant BOWIE COUNTY, was responsible for providing and maintaining adequate lighting, adequate barricades, and adequate signage to notify drivers of upcoming dangerous conditions on all County Roads and for maintaining said roads.
