Louisiana Court Rules DeRay McKesson Not Liable for Protest Injuries in Major Win
Jul 12, 2024, 07:37 PM
A federal court in Louisiana has ruled that civil rights activist DeRay McKesson is not legally responsible for injuries inflicted by an unidentified protester during a demonstration he organized. The lawsuit, filed nearly eight years ago by a policeman who was hit by a piece of concrete, claimed McKesson was liable for the injuries. The court's decision is seen as a significant victory for the right to protest and the First Amendment. This ruling is considered a major win and dismisses what was described as a vexatious lawsuit.
