Lawsuit filed against OceanGate, the company involved in the submersible implosion on the way to the Titanic

You may recall that last year a controversial company named OceanGate was involved in an accident that resulted in the death of a number of people in a submersible on the way to visiting the remains of Titanic.  If not, google it, it was all over the news.  I say "controversial" because following the news of the disappearance of the submersible, and the long rescue attempt, news surfaced about the very questionable - to say the least - practices of the company, including reports that documented its reckless handling of safety issues.  (There was a 60 Minutes segment, among many others.  Some of those programs are available on YouTube.  See here and here for example.)

Given this uncovered safety - or lack thereof - history, it is not surprising that the family of a French citizen who died in the implosion has filed wrongful death lawsuit against OceanGate, which, also not surprisingly, has ceased operations.
