Wife of man killed in Texas workplace accident files wrongful death lawsuit

A wrongful death lawsuit has been filed by the wife of a man killed in a Texas workplace accident on December 4th of this year.

The victim, Tommy Manis, was an employee at a Valero plant in Texas City. Manis was sent to restart a boiler, but the boiler exploded, killing Manis.

According to the attorney for the victim’s wife, Laura Parker-Manis, the company knew that the boiler was malfunctioning and had been for several months. It was, says the attorney, a known threat to the employees of Valero.

A wrongful death lawsuit over the deadly workplace accident has already been filed against the manufacturer of the boiler and the company that provided maintenance. Parker-Manis will soon be adding Valero as a defendant in the suit.
