Family of Trump Supporter Murdered By Antifa Militant Files Lawsuit Against Portland City, Mayor, and DA
The estate of Aaron ‘Jay’ Danielson, who was murdered by Antifa militant Michael Reinoehl following a pro-Trump rally, has filed a lawsuit against the city of Portland, the mayor and the county district attorney for negligence.
The suit was filed in federal court on Friday and argues that Danielson would still be alive if the city did not have a “hands-off approach” to political demonstrations and counter-protests. The estate is seeking $13 million in damages — $1.5 million in economic damages, $1.5 million in non-economic damages and up to $10 million in punitive damages.
Danielson, 39, was shot and killed on Aug. 29, 2020 after seemingly being stalked by Reinoehl.
