Some looting is done by rioters, much more looting is done by lawyers.

The city should counter sue the “family” for cost and damages their son caused to the city by being a thug...

Maybe they should bury their thug son properly first...

Suing for what? The kid was a criminal who attacked a police officer and died in commission of that action. So you did a lousy job and raised a bad kid and it caught up with you. What do you do after that? Sue someone.........

I hope he counter-sues for everything THEY have.

They have no basis for a lawsuit.
