Worker buried alive at construction site, lawsuit says
Trevor Kilgore is suing his former employer and contractors of a home construction project where a trench collapsed, trapping him (Parrish-Sams Luthens Law).

Trevor Kilgore is taking legal action against his ex-employer and contractors over an incident during a house building where a trench caved in, leaving him trapped.

An Iowa man alleges in a lawsuit he was buried under a wall of dirt after an improperly benched, shored, and inadequately protected 12-foot trench collapsed while he was hooking up water and sewer lines at a new home construction site.

In court documents, Trevor Kilgore described the terror in the 12-foot-deep trench on a lot in Bondurant, more than 14 miles northeast of Des Moines, on June 12, 2023. As the trench collapsed, he dove toward the side of the wall and “scrunched” his body up to create an air pocket and avoid crushing his head.
