Two weeks after that date, the Dixie Fire erupted, burning down the historic town of Greenville on its path to destroying nearly a million acres and becoming the second largest fire in California history. Last year, the company pleaded guilty to 84 involuntary manslaughter counts stemming from the Camp Fire.
In conducting our analysis, KQED and The California Newsroom reviewed hundreds of securities filings, known as 13F s, which large institutional investors must submit to the U. Securities and Exchange Commission every three months. The documents offer a snapshot of a hedge fund's portfolio, showing how much stock it holds in various companies at the end of each quarter.
The firestorm killed 44 people and destroyed thousands of homes. The fire killed 85 people and displaced tens of thousands in and around the town of Paradise. It remains the deadliest and most destructive fire in California history. Wagner would serve as the public face of the group. By the time the bankruptcy was finalized last summer, Wagner's fund held But these sales pale in comparison to the sell-off by David Tepper's Appaloosa Management.
Appaloosa did not respond to our inquiries about its decision to sell off while fie survivors struggled. Meanwhile, Centerbridge Partners, the hedge fund that helped bankroll attorney Mikal Watts, sold 1. Centerbridge was co-founded by Mark Gallogly, who was appointed as an adviser to President Joe Biden's climate team earlier this year. Gallogly's appointment immediately drew rebukes from environmental advocacy groups, who said he had profited from climate emergencies in both California and Puerto Rico.
Gallogly departed Biden's climate team a few months later. That's more than any other hedge fund. In a statement, a Baupost spokesperson said it participated in the backstop after being asked by several parties in the bankruptcy — including representatives of fire survivors — to "support the company's emergence from bankruptcy. Many fire survivors want to be rid of the emotional burden that comes with this, and receive cash that would come with the stock's sale, but the stock has continued to lag well below the level needed to make fire victims whole.
In June, John Trotter, the court-appointed trustee of the Fire Victim Trust, signaled in a YouTube video that he planned to hold off on selling any of the million shares it owns. They will "never be made whole," Trotter said. As Terry McBride and her daughter wait for compensation from the Fire Victim Trust, they've had to brave a combination of extreme heat and wildfire smoke that leaves them with persistent headaches.
The temperature in their trailer regularly spikes higher than degrees. They've covered their trailer, which Terry refers to as "a tin can," with reflective paint to try to lower the temperature inside by a few degrees on the hottest days.
They live modestly while they wait. Our workflow has solid direction now - we have a process in place the begins with RocketReach and ends with huge contact lists for our sales team..
We can divert our attention to actually going after the customer now! Great for building a list of leads. I loved the ability to determine personal emails from virtually anyone on the web with RocketReach. I was assigned a project recently that regarded public relations, partnership, and outreach responsibilities and RocketReach not only connected me to prospective individuals but allowed me to streamline my search approach on the basis of location, skill set, and keyword.
Prior to RocketReach, we would reach out to people through professional networking sites like Linkedln. But it was frustrating for us to have to wait for people to accept our connection requests if they accepted them at all and sending is too expensive..
With the shear number of contacts we've been able to find using RocketReach, the platform has probably saved us nearly five years' worth of waiting. It's the best, most effective email search engine I've used yet, and I've tried a few.
Both in the scope of the searches, and in the number of accurate emails found, I find it surpasses others. I also like the layout, which is easy on the eye, more attractive and efficient.
The bottom line is that it has been a effective tool in my work, as a non-profit reaching out to leadership. Before RocketReach, the process of sourcing email addresses consisted of scouring the internet, asking mutual friends, or stalking on LinkedIn.
The most frustrating part was how time consuming this all was. Finding emails for contacts turned into a one-and-done instead of a week long process. Looking up emails for a targeted outreach was manual and enormously time consuming. It also resulted in the company pleading guilty to 84 counts of involuntary manslaughter in Butte County, where the town of Paradise was wiped out by the Camp Fire in However, the utility's rate hike request was angrily condemned by The Utility Reform Network, a San Francisco-based consumer group.
