- Allan Filgueiras, father of the 20-year co-pilot Nathalia Filgueiras, held an emotional news conference Friday to honor his daughter following the deadly Learjet crash in Greenacres, Florida.
- A private Learjet carrying nine people crashed into a residential area in Greenacres on Sunday, killing all aboard including a Texas family of four with young children aged 4 and 2.

- Attorney Stuart Grossman stated the family is not suing anyone currently, emphasizing their focus on preserving Nathalia's reputation against online criticism regarding her experience as a commercial pilot.
