Investigators Couldn't Find Kyle Rittenhouse. That Won't Stop the ... (VICE)

John Huber filed a lawsuit after Kyle Rittenhouse shot and killed his son. Even though they can't find Rittenhouse, a judge ruled the suit can proceed.

At the end of a tense trial in 2021, Rittenhouse was found not guilty of first-degree reckless homicide, two counts of first-degree intentional homicide, and two counts of reckless endangerment of safety. The lawsuit argues that the allegedly friendly attitude police had with the armed men in the streets, such as Rittenhouse, emboldened them to the point they would feel comfortable shooting protesters. Rittenhouse’s lawyers attempted to have the lawsuit dismissed because, they argued, it failed to show any conspiracy. “Rittenhouse, in contrast, is almost certainly evading service,” the decision reads. But when they couldn’t find him, the lawsuit stalled. Blake survived the shooting but was paralyzed from the waist down.

Huber's claims against government actors included charges that cops' actions during the protests amounted to a conspiracy with Rittenhouse to harm ...

Whether communications between Rittenhouse and police rose to the level of a civil conspiracy is a question to be determined by the ultimate trier of fact — likely a jury. Defendants argued that the existence of a conspiracy between cops and Rittenhouse was “absurd.” Adelman ruled that given law enforcement’s knowing creation of a dangerous situation, Huber’s killing was “a foreseeable result of the defendants’ decision to create an explosive situation by forcing protestors into a confined area with hostile armed individuals,” rather than a “remote” consequence. “As most of America fully understands, the only reason Kyle came into contact with Anthony Huber that night is that Huber struck Kyle on the head with a skateboard and knocked him to the ground while Kyle was fleeing a mob of other attackers and running toward Kenosha police to turn himself in,” Martin wrote in a statement. In addition, Defendants thanked Rittenhouse and other armed individuals, gave them water, and allowed them to openly defy the emergency curfew order that was in place. That lawsuit also leveled federal civil rights claims against the city and county of Kenosha, along with law enforcement officers who were involved in the police response to the protests over Jacob Blake‘s shooting.
