White Sox Owner Reinsdorf to Be Deposed in 2023 Stadium Shooting Lawsuit

News summary

Chicago White Sox and Chicago Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf has been ordered by a Cook County judge to be deposed in a lawsuit related to a shooting at Guaranteed Rate Field during a White Sox game in August 2023. Two women were wounded in the incident, with one filing a lawsuit in 2024 accusing the team of negligence and recklessness, particularly regarding enforcement of the ballpark's no-weapons policy. Despite the shooting, the game continued and a postgame concert was canceled due to technical issues. Reinsdorf is expected to answer questions about comments he made after the shooting and the decision to not halt the game. Investigations have yet to conclusively determine how the weapon entered the ballpark or the origin of the gunfire, with conflicting statements from Reinsdorf and police officials. The deposition is set to take place by the end of July as part of ongoing legal proceedings.
