Hawai‘i Public Radio examined the federal government’s approximately $17 million in settlement payments related to the Red Hill fuel contamination and why many families chose not to accept the offers.
Interviewed by the station, Just Well Law founder Kristina Baehr explained that some plaintiffs wanted closure while others believed the proposed compensation did not reflect the court’s damages findings. She also described the unresolved claims of service members affected by contaminated water in their homes.
