ReportFamily files first wrongful-death lawsuit in Amazon cargo crashAired September 10, 2026 at 5:32 AM UTCWritten September 10, 2026 at 5:35 AM UTCRead the write-upThis storyTranscript · LOADING0:00The first lawsuit over the Miami cargo crash says the pilot came in at roughly 1810:06miles per hour.0:07Five people died on that runway.0:09One family now argues the crash was preventable, and it is putting both the airline0:14and Amazon before a jury.0:16The question is whether the federal investigation will back what the complaint0:19claims.0:20Attorney Mike Morgan filed the suit on September 9th on behalf of the wife and son0:24Ronaldo of Yoel Rodriguez Nadano, one of the five killed.0:28The complaint describes a landing through storm and tailwind, a touchdown halfway0:32down the runway, and no attempt to go around.0:34A combination it argues the plane could never have survived.0:37Each step shortens the runway left to stop, and the suit argues the combination made0:41the overrun inevitable.0:43Beyond the pilot, the complaint raises two questions about the company that put the0:47plane in the air.0:48The aircraft was a 32-year-old former passenger plane.0:51Flown by an operator the suit says carries alleged safety problems and Attorney0:56Morgan draws Amazon into responsibility through Atlas.0:59a company he links to both Amazon and partial ownership.1:02Amazon has offered condolences and says it will cooperate fully with the NTSB.1:07The board's investigation remains open and no final cause has been published.1:11The five deaths are established and so is the filing.1:14Everything else, the speed, the touchdown point, the aircraft's age comes from the1:18complaint alone and the federal investigation has not yet confirmed any of it.1:22So the open question remains the distance between the allegation and the evidence.1:26Whether the NTSB corroborates the pilot and corporate failures the suit identifies,1:31and whether Amazon's responsibility through the Atlas link survives once the facts1:35are settled is still unresolved.Explore with HeyDexFollow via RSSThe shortThe short ↗
