Kyle Rittenhouse loses bid to toss out lawsuit by family of slain Kenosha protester

A Wisconsin federal judge has shot down bids by Kyle Rittenhouse and local law enforcement to toss out a wrongful death lawsuit by the family of slain Kenosha protester Anthony Huber.

Huber’s father, John Huber, filed suit in 2021, claiming Rittenhouse, 20, conspired with law enforcement to harm protesters during major unrest in Kenosha on Aug. 25, 2020.

The suit also names the Kenosha police, sheriff’s departments and local government, who had attempted, along with Rittenhouse, to get the case thrown out.
