Passengers file lawsuits against airlines after plane crash in Toronto; Investigation continues

A Texas man named Marthinus Lourens has filed a lawsuit against Delta Air Lines after a crash landing in Toronto, claiming significant injuries and emotional distress from the incident.
Delta Air Lines offered $30,000 to each of the 80 passengers involved, which totaled $2.4 million for the payouts, but these do not prevent lawsuits against the airline.
The lawsuit also names Endeavor Air, a Delta subsidiary, as a defendant in the case regarding the crash landing incident.
Attorney Antonio Romanucci expressed skepticism about Delta's quick compensation offer, suggesting it may not deter further lawsuits from passengers.
