During the crowd surge, attendees were compressed so tightly that many could not breathe. 10 attendees ultimately died from compression asphyxia, including the victim discussed below. The Houston Police Department investigated the Astroworld deaths and documented their findings in an offense report. They submitted their report to the DA's office for potential criminal charges.

Helpful hints:

• Review the prompt in its entirety before reading the supplementary materials. You want to know what facts you are looking for.
• Start broadly with your rule identification before getting specific. Upsidedown triangle!
• Reach your final conclusion of whether the state will succeed in establishing each element of the offense utilizing their preferred theory.
• Write for the uninformed reader, not me.
• Remember that this case, and the supplementary material, involve real people who have suffered injury, trauma, and loss. Be respectful in your discussion.
