The lawsuit, filed Thursday in federal court in Milwaukee, calls Kyle Rittenhouse's actions 'a natural consequence' of law enforcement's decisions that night.
Earlier that day, after two nights of demonstrations over the Blake shooting had led to rioting, looting and arson, a former Kenosha alderman, Kevin Mathewson, used a Facebook account he had created for the Kenosha Guard to solicit"patriots willing to take up arms and defend our City tonight against the evil thugs.”
Rittenhouse's attorneys have said he didn't see Mathewson's post and wasn't responding to it but had gone with a friend to guard one specific car dealership that had three lots along Sheridan Road in the heart of the protest zone. They deny he had any interest in militias or white supremacy. If Grosskreutz, a paramedic, had not had his own tourniquet and knew how to use it, he may also have died, the lawsuit states.
Police enforced curfews against people protesting police violence, and not against any of the armed, militia-style men present that night, according to the lawsuit and an. A judge has largely dismissed those claims but left room for the plaintiffs to refile some of them.
