victims' families have been trying to seek redress for quite some time.

Sorry, it doesn't hold water. Call 911. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out how to get redress. I can't imagine any normal parent not being livid at learning of this, and calling in authorities, so this "trying" business suggests blackmail. "We'll tell the cops if you don't pay. . . " kind of stuff.

Enough already.
