Family of Ashli Babbitt Files $30 Million Lawsuit Against the Government over Her Death on Jan. 6

Ashli

The family of Jan. 6 protester Ashli Babbitt has filed a $30 million wrongful death lawsuit against the government, saying she posed no threat to anyone when she was killed.

Babbitt was fatally shot trying to enter a secured area inside the U.S. Capitol Building the day the Capitol riot took place three years ago. The 14-year Air Force veteran was unarmed at the time, as she tried to climb through a broken window in a door near the House Chamber.

The lawsuit, which was filed in federal court in Southern California, alleges that Babbitt was ambushed by Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd, who shot her.

“Ashli posed no threat to the safety of anyone,” the lawsuit reads.

In August of 2021, the Capitol Hill Police Department conducted an internal investigation and concluded that Byrd had violated no laws and would not be disciplined for the shooting.

“USCP officers had barricaded the Speaker’s Lobby with furniture before a rioter shattered the glass door,” the department said following the investigation, according to CBS News. “If the doors were breached, the rioters would have immediate access to the House chambers. The officer’s actions were consistent with the officer’s training and USCP policies and procedures.”

The lawsuit also accuses the Capitol Police of assault and negligent use of force.

“The POS LYING murderer was actually PROMOTED and still is on the capitol police force.”

I know. It was on the Warroom today. Then there’s that Capitol officer that beat the woman to death.

I wonder if all those people sitting in slam can present a class action suit for the lack of due process they have had to endure

I find it bizarre that Ashli was basically herded by mostly law enforcement to the spot where she was slain - like a human sacrifice needed for Pelosi's plot to turn President Trump's event against him in the public's eye.

And so far it has worked. Special circle in Hell awaits where the freezers are hot and the ice cream is made of poo.

Thank you for posting this Laura Logan video about Victoria White.

Everyone should see it. I have followed J6 closely, but somehow this story escaped me. Again, thank you.

I wish I could be on the jury. For one thing, the award amount would be astronomically higher than $30M.

I think actual justice and righteousness over the overt evil propaganda and evil lies our current government is pushing needs to be broadcast and told broadly to citizens who've been lied to for to so long with mass media's and government-based education's agenda.

Someone please edit me when on these rants for mistakes was I'm too impassioned to properly do so myself when tired.

I do love reading most of you all's posts and may God continue blessing America despite the forces working to destroy it.

They deserve compensation but this is.....America 2024.
Still worth fighting for, though. To protect the Remnant.

You’re speaking truth, FRiend. No need to correct anything about it.

I quit being quiet whenever I’m in a public setting and someone mentions Biden or Democrats. I flat up tell them after they’ve finished with their bullsh!t and ask them, “When’s the last time you were in a grocery store? Do you think Biden or DOKTOR Biden ever set foot in one? There’s yer answer.”
