The Alameda County District Attorney has announced that her office will not be filing criminal charges in relation to the Berkeley Balcony collapse last June.
Five Irish students and an Irish American lost their lives when the balcony collapsed on June 16th last year, while 7 others were injured.
District Attorney for Alameda County, Nancy O'Malley says having carefully considered all the known evidence, and conducting an in-depth legal analysis based on expert opinion, the Office has concluded that there is insufficient evidence to bring criminal manslaughter charges against any one individual or company.
In a statement this evening Ms O’Malley says this is not a decision she came to lightly
