During a news conference on Tuesday, Lonnie and Sandy Phillips—the parents of Jessica Ghawi, who died in the shooting rampage at an Aurora, Colorado, movie theater in 2012—announced their lawsuit against four Internet ammunition companies that sold ammunition to the alleged shooter, James Holmes. The lawsuit claims that the companies “did not make reasonable inquiries into Holmes’ purchases, nor did the defendants take any extra precautions when selling Holmes weapons, accessories, and ammunition, or ask Holmes why he wanted the items,” and seeks a halt on all sales until stronger, more reliable restrictions are enacted.
