A Texas grand jury has declined to indict rapper Travis Scott and organizers of the Astroworld Festival in Houston after a stampede in November 2021 left 10 people dead. Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg announced the grand jury's decision in a news release, stating that "a tragedy isn't always a crime." "It is tragic that 10 innocent people were killed while trying to enjoy an evening of music and entertainment, something many of us do routinely and without a second thought to our safety. But a tragedy isn't always a crime, and not every death is a homicide," Ogg said. Ogg noted the grand jury had issued six no-bills, ending the criminal investigation, but that the grand jury's determination "has no impact on the many civil lawsuits pending." Tens of thousands of people are said to have rushed the stage when Travis Scott appeared at the festival, leaving thousands reportedly injured and 10 people dead, including two victims under the age of 15.
