“When you send your kid off to have fun, because someone else isn’t providing the right…I don’t know, I can explain. Good security.

“It is a testament to the current state of live events and the greed that plagues this industry.

“No one should feel unsafe enjoying something they love, and sadly that’s exactly what happened.

“We pledge to work diligently and responsibly to bring justice to the Peña family and all the afflicted, and we will not rest until these voices are heard loud and clear.

“We will hold the responsible parties accountable and fight to ensure that something positive comes out of this utter disaster.” Something has to change. Something will change.
