"No one should die going to a concert," attorney Richard Mithoff said in a statement to a news outlet. Hilgert was a freshman at Memorial High School in Houston. "The pain of our loss from our son John not making it home alive from an event such as this is intolerable," Mr Hilgert told the outlet, adding, "He was a beautiful young man who simply wanted to enjoy his first concert event with friends, whom he treasured spending time with more than anything else." Alec Baldwin’s Wife Hilaria Baldwin Pens Heartfelt Note on Thanksgiving 2021, Reflects on ‘Challenging Year’.
