Court filing accuses Southern California Edison of tampering with possible Eaton fire evidence
Briefly

Attorneys for Altadena residents affected by the Eaton fire are seeking court sanctions against Southern California Edison (SCE), alleging that the utility re-energized transmission lines without proper disclosure or consideration of a pending restraining order aimed at preserving evidence. This action, they claim, threatens the integrity of the ongoing investigation into the fire's origins. In response, SCE refuted the claims, asserting they informed the plaintiffs about the re-energization and maintain their commitment to preserving evidence. The matter reflects ongoing tensions between affected homeowners and the utility amid the backdrop of legal action and scrutiny.
