Yes, my point was not that this was federal, but that as horrible as that trial was it will still be worse as we will have a civil suit against Rittenhouse. I suspect he may counter sue them, hopefully the judge just tosses this out.um your link says someone representing one of the dead men and the wounded man who tried to stop the active shooter filed suit against the police
not the shooter.
People try to kill you, they are killed as you defend yourself from their attack and now their family members sue you? If this goes through, even if they don't win the lawsuit it is punishment by lawsuit. Another three months of hell.
On the other hand this does create a compelling comparison with OJ
