Four Dead in Manure Pit Tragedy | Denver News

Four dairy workers died after inhaling toxic gas from a ruptured manure pit, and their families are now suing Prospect Valley Dairy and its owner, Arend Bos, accusing him of willful negligence — including ignoring unsafe piping, lacking safety equipment, and even using ratchet straps to hold systems together. The lawsuit claims Bos knew the risks for months and that the deaths may qualify as felonious killings, allowing for unlimited damages. HD Builders, LLC is also named in the suit. No response has been received from defendants, but the families vow to hold the dairy accountable for what they call a preventable tragedy.
