Over 100 January 6 Defendants File $50 Billion Class Action Lawsuit Against DOJ for Wrongful Incarceration
Dec 27, 2024, 08:41 PM
More than 100 individuals involved in the January 6 Capitol riot have initiated a $50 billion class action lawsuit against the Department of Justice (DOJ). The lawsuit alleges wrongful incarceration, poor prison conditions, harsh sentencing, inadequate legal representation, and a perceived two-tier justice system. This legal action is described as one of the largest ever filed against the DOJ in relation to the events of January 6, 2021. The plaintiffs, referred to as political prisoners, claim they have faced injustices during their detention and prosecution. The lawsuit is reportedly being led by a group of attorneys representing these defendants, who are seeking restitution for the alleged harms they have suffered.
