During the press conference held over Zoom, Austin's mother Alice McEwen said that Amazon opted to not evacuate workers from the facility in a timely manner as it sought them to keep fulfilling orders. She added, "It appears that Amazon placed profits first during this holiday season instead of the safety of our son and the other five families who lost loved ones."
Kelly Nantel, a spokesperson for Amazon said in a statement that the company will defend against the lawsuit and added that Amazon's "focus continues to be on supporting our employees and partners, the families who lost loved ones, the surrounding community, and all those affected by the tornadoes." Nantel said that while severe weather conditions are common in the area, it is not common for businesses to shut down operations in anticipation of severe storms.
