In Kentucky, a woman named Tyrah Adams, 35, was killed after a Metro solid waste truck picked her up and crushed her on Feb. 12. Now, Adams’ family has filed a lawsuit, arguing that the way her death was initially reported by the city raised suspicions it may have been meant to obscure key details from the public.
On the morning of Feb. 12, Adams was asleep in an alley on Cedar Street in Louisville. She was known to frequent the area at that time of day, according to people familiar with the neighborhood. Still, the waste crew cleared the alley with no acknowledgment of her presence.
