A mound of wreckage at the Indiana State Fair hasn't been disturbed since dozens of concertgoers and workers were pulled from under collapsed stage rigging from the sugarland a week ago.

Beth Urschel, 49, is seeking at least $60 million in a wrongful death claim from Mid-America Sound Corporation, which owned the collapsed stage structure, among a bevy of other companies that helped put on the concert.
