Gov. Wes Moore on Francis Scott Key Bridge: There Needs To Be Accountability for What Happened that Night

‘There needs to be a full and thorough investigation’

EXCERPT:
QUICK: "The ships owner and management company went to court to try and limit their liability to something like $43 million. That comes as a surprise or a concern?"
MOORE: "It's not a surprise. We were expecting it. We’re prepared for it. I know there needs to be a full and thorough investigation, but I also know this – if people need to be held to account for what happened on that day, they need to be held to account and need to be responsible for it. So we know it’s an active investigation. We would like to see a speedy process with that investigation. And while we’re not surprised on the ask for the limited liability, I know the thing we urge is there needs to be accountability for what happened that night."
