Defendants in Dominican nightclub collapse case arrive for pre-trial hearing
Dominicans Maribel and Antonio Espaillat arrive for a pre-trial hearing after being arrested on manslaughter charges over the collapse of a nightclub in Santo Domingo. The two siblings, owners of the Jet Set nightclub, are accused of "immense irresponsibility and negligence" for failing to carry out repairs to the roof, which collapsed in the early hours of April 8 during a concert by merengue star Rubby Perez, killing 236 revelers, including the singer.
