How Did This Happen?The California wildfires that ignited on January 7, 2025, were among the most destructive in recent memory, with three major blazes: Eaton, Palisades, and Hurst. These fires devastated wide swaths of Los Angeles and Ventura counties. Over the course of 24 days, they burned tens of thousands of acres, destroyed entire communities, and affected more than 330,000 residents. Preliminary investigations into the Eaton Fire’s origin point to defective and poorly maintained equipment operated by Southern California Edison (SCE). Eyewitness accounts and corroborating video footage show sparks flying from SCE’s transmission towers moments before the Eaton Fire erupted. These failures are emblematic of the utility’s alleged negligence.
