Tom creighton hired destroy inc a demolition company to


Tom Creighton hired Destroy, Inc., a demolition company, to level an old building on a busy downtown lot. Destroy, Inc. was given full rein to decide on the amount of explosives needed and the placement of the charges. Security for the site on the day of the explosion was contracted out to a private security firm. When the appointed day arrived, the building was brought down. However, the building fell in a slightly different direction than that anticipated by Destroy, Inc. Numerous pieces of adjoining property, both real property and personal property, were severely damaged. Creighton claims that the use of an independent contractor such as Destroy, Inc. has insulated him from liability. What do you think about Creighton's claim?
