Last summer, Vasquez’ legal team argued the grand jury hadn’t heard to full version of events before indicting her. In 2019, the NTSB’s final report placed primary blame on the operator, but secondary blame on Uber, the pedestrian, and the state. In 2015, Lauren wrote about the “shut-in economy” and social divides being entrenched by on-demand services. Support the show
