Investigative Report on Palisades Fire
A new investigative report from the LA Times suggests that the catastrophic Palisades fire in January, which killed 12 people, burned nearly 7,000 structures, and caused tens of billions of dollars in damages, may have been preventable.
According to the report, firefighters were ordered to abandon a smoldering burn site just days before the fire exploded.
The massive January 7th blaze is believed to have originated from a smaller fire that occurred on January 1st.
Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Paul Pringle, who co-authored the LA Times piece, discussed the key findings of his reporting on CNN.
Author's summary: Palisades fire may have been preventable.
