Southern California Edison has announced it will create a program to compensate victims of January’s devastating Eaton Fire near Los Angeles.

The Eaton Fire’s cause is still under investigation, but Southern California Edison is planning to launch a fund to compensate those affected. Survivors say the utility is trying to “buy us off.”

Tom Wait speaks to Cathy Yanni, who supervised the fund that helped people recover from three massive fires in Northern California, to find more information that Eaton Fire victims should understand before deciding whether to sue SoCal Edison or participate in the compensation program.
