So, when the grid fails & A/C goes off, remember Europe in the summer of 2003 when 70,000 died from heat. I wonder what the media was focused on instead.🤔

Good evening after a long day in Shasta County-- where a judge followed through today on his plan to dismiss felony charges against PG&E for starting the 2020 .

If the case had been allowed to go before a jury, prosecutors say PG&E would have been found guilty of 4 manslaughter felonies: "That's sad that that was taken away from us and taken away from the family members."

DA Bridgett says she talked to the families, to direct some of this money toward causes that honor the memories of the 4 people killed.

Some $ will go to scholarships, an animal evac center, the Igo-Ono school... which will make a new play structure in memory of 8-year-old Feyla.

There's also "Feyla's fund" to assist families recovering from disasters.

The deal has PG&E paying $50M, also enforcement/oversight provisions, Bridgett says.

Added weather stations, undergrounding, removal of abandoned lines are all part of the agreement, DA Bridgett says.

Also changes to tree inspection practices, requiring more process/sign-offs to de-list trees (not cut) that are marked as known hazards.

She praised Judge Boeckman, who bound PG&E over for trial after a preliminary hearing.... and says she disagrees with Judge Flynn who announced his intent to toss the charges.

Bridgett says she's not willing to gamble with the outcome, hence the civil settlement-- which she says will provide tangible changes now.
