MGM has come under heavy criticism after they opted to sue those affected in last year's Vegas mass shooting.

The lawsuit was filed on July 13 by MGM Resorts International, which owns the Mandalay Bay Hotel, from where Stephen Paddock opened fire Oct. 1, 2017 – killing 58 people and injuring more than 500 others who were attending a concert at the Route 91 Harvest Festival.

“Not in a million years did I think this would happen,” Lisa Fine, 49, a survivor of the shooting who suffered knee injuries, tells TIME. “I cannot believe that they considered doing this at all. We’re outraged.”
