Demanda: los atajos de seguridad y la respuesta de emergencia fallida causaron la muerte por negligencia de un hombre de 23 años

SANTA FE, Nuevo México, 10 de diciembre de 2024 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- Una nueva demanda alega que la muerte de un trabajador de 23 años en una mina de carbón de Nuevo México fue causada por una serie de fallas de seguridad y una respuesta de emergencia fallida, dijeron hoy The Spence Law Firm, LLC y su abogado adjunto.

En las primeras horas del 23 de agosto de 2022, David Warren, un soldador contratado, fue enviado a reparar un pestillo en una puerta de acero de 13 toneladas de una pala industrial de movimiento de tierras en la mina de carbón El Segundo fuera DE Grants, N.M. Para acceder al pestillo, la compañía minera diseñó una práctica de "bloquear" abrir la puerta con un gran bloque o tope de plástico. Según la demanda, mientras Warren trabajaba en el pestillo entre el borde del cubo del cucharón y la puerta de acero, el bloque de plástico se disparó y la puerta aplastó a Warren en la cintura y la pelvis, dejando sus piernas colgando fuera del cubo y su torso y parte superior del cuerpo atrapados dentro.

"Warren gritó de dolor", alega la demanda. "Después de un tiempo, el operador de la pala levantó el cucharón (con Warren atrapado dentro) en el aire, abriendo la puerta del cucharón por gravedad. La pala dejó caer a Warren unos siete pies al suelo... Nadie llamó al 911. Un trabajador de la mina llamó directamente a la compañía de vuelos salvavidas, evitando informar a las autoridades locales. Y la mina proporcionó las coordenadas equivocadas a los servicios de emergencia. Warren murió aún esperando un vuelo de salvamento, más de una hora después.

Los demandados en el caso son Peabody Energy, Inc., El Segundo Coal Company, LLC; Seth Puls, el gerente general de la mina; William Jarrell, el gerente de seguridad de la mina; y Caterpillar, Inc. La demanda alega negligencia, responsabilidad por productos y muerte por negligencia, e incumplimiento de la garantía implícita.

Se acusa a los acusados de no proporcionar un procedimiento seguro para el bloqueo de la puerta de la marmita relacionado con el mantenimiento, procedimientos operativos estándar escritos, capacitación adecuada o un plan de rescate. La demanda también afirma que otros rescates en la mina se habían retrasado por fallas en la comunicación y el proceso. Desde entonces, Caterpillar ha desarrollado una puerta de martillo sin pestillo, lo que demuestra la viabilidad de un diseño alternativo más seguro.

La demanda alega: "Este incidente y la muerte de Warren no fue un incidente aislado: la mina El Segundo era más peligrosa que minas similares. En 2021, el año anterior a la muerte de Warren, la tasa de incidentes de días perdidos no fatales para la mina El Segundo fue de 1.44 en comparación con el promedio nacional de 0.97 para minas de este tipo ".

La familia del Sr. Warren está representada por Tyson E. Logan y Sarah A. Kellogg, de The Spence Law Firm NM, LLC, de Albuquerque, NM; y Phil Nicholas, de Nicholas & Tangeman, LLC, de Laramie, WY.

La familia de David Warren dijo: "Sabemos que esto no debería haber sucedido. No está bien. Ha sido devastador para nuestra familia. Queremos más respuestas y justicia, y queremos ayudar a otras familias a evitar lo que estamos pasando ".

Tyson E. Logan, de The Spence Law Firm NM, dijo: "La búsqueda de la verdad para la familia Warren continuará. Sin embargo, ahora tenemos claro que esta era una operación peligrosa por parte de las empresas que tomaban atajos. Una serie de fallas de seguridad en la mina El Segundo causaron la muerte de David. Las secuelas y la desastrosa respuesta de emergencia realmente agravan esta tragedia. Estamos aquí por esta familia, estamos aquí por un cambio real ".

El caso es Todd Lopez, como Representante de Muerte Injusta para el Patrimonio de David E. Warren, III, fallecido, v. Peabody Energy, Inc., El Segundo Coal Company, LLC, Seth Puls, William Jarrell y Caterpillar, Inc., Caso No. D-101-CV-2024-00910 en el Tribunal del Primer Distrito Judicial del Condado de Santa Fe, Nuevo México.
