This will depend on the relative degrees of culpability of different defendants. You may certainly sue the perpentrator of the crime, without knowing more facts, your situation is impossible to assess.

Suing the perpetrator of this horrible crime will not likely result in you being compensated. The owner of the location or managing agent may be liable if they failed to provide adequate security. You may also be eligible to make a claim for benefits from a fund set up for crime victims. Please feel free to contact this office for a free consultation.
