Help Available for San Diego Wildfire Victims

By Ross Jurewitz

The October 2007 San Diego Wildfires were a scary time for most of the region as wildfires raged and traveled great distances carried by powerful Santa Ana winds. It was, we believed, a horribly tragic natural catastrophe.

Now, there is significant evidence that two of these fires--the Witch Creek and Rice Canyon fires--may have been caused by defective SDG&E power lines. Several investigators and witnesses observed SDG&E personnel making repairs immediately following the fires.

If faulty or defective SDG&E power lines did cause these fires, the victims deserve compensation to rebuild their lost homes and to get back on their feet.
