RMM-079: Survivors of Murdered Mason Sue Grand Lodge of Texas for Negligence
Bro. Robert Wise was mercilessly gunned down when leaving McAllen Lodge No. 1110 in July this year by an anti-Mason. On Nov 27, members of Bro. Wise's family filed suit against the Grand Lodge of Texas and McAllen Lodge for negligence and gross negligence for failing to make the Lodge and its curtilage safe. Should a Lodge be held liable for the acts of the criminally insane? What does this action mean to other Lodges going forward, and how should officers prepare to deal with anti-Masonry against their buildings and membership?Support the showwww.rockymountainmason.comwww.esotericmason.comSupport the show: https://patreon.com/rockymountainmason?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=join_link
