Kyle Rittenhouse sued by estate of Joseph Rosenbaum
The Washington Examiner ^ | 08/26/2023 | Jenny Goldsberry

Kyle Rittenhouse is facing a lawsuit from the estate of one of the men he shot in self-defense.

The lawsuit was timely filed on the third anniversary of the death of 36-year-old Joseph Rosenbaum Friday. Rittenhouse was acquitted of all criminal charges surrounding the incident a year later

Rosenbaum's estate is also targeting the City of Kenosha, its officials, the City of West Allis, six local Sheriff’s departments, and two police departments for “compensatory and punitive damages” over what it refers to as Rosenbaum's “wrongful death.” During Rittenhouse's trial, witnesses confirmed that Rosenbaum reached for Rittenhouse's gun during the Black Lives Matter protest the two were present at.

"I’m being sued again for defending my life," Rittenhouse posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.

No action under color of law= no cause of action under 1983. I can only speak for CA: if the guy doesn’t die right away, a survival action for pain suffering and expense during that prior. After death only wrongful death and the heirs are set established by law. In CA explicitly no other claims of the decedent relating to the death are allowed

I think that the Bar Associations should have the decency to suspend a lawyer’s license punitively for filing depraved, twisted harassment cases against a citizen already cleared in a court of law of the substance of the claim.

the “Rosenbaum Estate”

It's a legal entity that came into existence upon the death of the convicted pervert Rosenbaum. It's controlled by surviving family of the late convicted child-molester Rosenbaum.

The fact that is country allows a civil suit after wining in a criminal trial is just sick.

OJ Simpson agrees ...

So why didn’t Mary Jo Kopechne’s family sue?

The Kreepy Kennedy Klan paid them off, quite handsomely. It's called "hush money"; the very wealthy often use it to make scandals go away. It's not illegal ... just sleazy.

Yeah a senseless argument since you thin that you have found a case that was justified. That does not make the practice right.

since you thin (sic) that

You're reading things into my post that aren't there. My statement is almost certainly true; OJ would certainly have benefited from your proposal.
