Lawsuit can proceed against Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse
Source: Eyewitness News WCHS
A federal judge in Wisconsin ruled Wednesday that a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the father of a man shot and killed by Kyle Rittenhouse during a protest in 2020 can proceed against Rittenhouse, police officers and others.
The father of Anthony Huber, one of two men shot and killed by Rittenhouse, filed the lawsuit in 2021, accusing officers of allowing for a dangerous situation that violated his son's constitutional rights and resulted in his death. Anthony Huber's father, John Huber, also alleged that Rittenhouse, who was 17 at the time of the shootings, conspired with law enforcement to cause harm to protestors. John Huber is seeking unspecified damages from city officials, officers and Rittenhouse.
U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman on Wednesday dismissed motions filed by Rittenhouse and the government defendants seeking to dismiss the civil rights lawsuit.
In allowing the case against Rittenhouse and the others to proceed, the judge said that Anthony Huber's death "could plausibly be regarded as having been proximately caused by the actions of the governmental defendants."

Apparently the little weasel has been hiding out in FL and was served there--well, the lawsuit was served on his sister. Little Kyle protested about that, but Judge said the summons stands.

The actual facts are enraging enough. You should learn them.

(4,175 posts)was specific about how he obtained the gun that day. He said words to the effect of "I just went to the house and I just found it sitting there." So unbelievable but it was in a case with a weak prosecutor, a judge predisposed towards the defendant and a jury from one of the most crooked counties and so we got what we got.
moniss
(4,175 posts)also had no drivers license, insurance etc. and was totally illegal to be driving but that had been his behavior for months before the night of his murderous behavior. But his defense and the judge painted him as "just a nice boy who was defending himself" when in fact he was a habitual criminal who was getting a pass from his family and apparently the Antioch, Illinois and Kenosha cops.
