MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A federal judge in Wisconsin ruled Wednesday that a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the father of a man shot & killed by Kyle Rittenhouse during a protest in 2020 can proceed against Rittenhouse, police officers & others.

The father of Anthony Huber, 1 of 2 men shot & killed by Rittenhouse, filed the lawsuit in 2021, accusing officers of allowing for a dangerous situation that violated his son’s constitutional rights & resulted in his death. Anthony Huber’s father, John Huber, also alleged that Rittenhouse, who was 17 at the time of the shootings, conspired with law enforcement to cause harm to protestors. John Huber is seeking unspecified damages from city officials, officers & Rittenhouse.

“While we respect the judge’s decision, we do not believe there is any evidence of a conspiracy and we are confident, just as a Kenosha jury found, Kyle’s actions that evening were not wrongful & were undertaken in self defense,” Rittenhouse attorney Shane Martin said.

Rittenhouse was charged with homicide, attempted homicide & reckless endangering for killing Anthony Huber & Joseph Rosenbaum & wounding a third person with an AR-style semi-automatic rifle in the summer of 2020 during a tumultuous night of protests over the shooting of a Black man, Jacob Blake, by a white Kenosha cop.

Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges in November 2021 after testifying he acted in self-defense. 

Rittenhouse went to Kenosha from his home in nearby Antioch, Illinois, after businesses were ransacked & burned in the nights that followed Blake’s shooting. He joined other armed civilians on the streets, carrying a weapon authorities said was illegally purchased for him because he was underage.

“Until Proven Guilty” is in a way, a powerful and poignant coming-of-age picture by an artist who is best at all that he does

Los Angeles, CA — ‘Until Proven Guilty’ is a fascinating and emotion-fueled record that narrates the intimate experience of growth, change, and healing by a skillful singer-songwriter. The new record delineates the story of JWALK’s journey from despair and darkness toward healing from the trauma of a toxic relationship.

A stellar work, ‘Until Proven Guilty’ has been produced and written by JWALK and features riveting instrumentation composed independently as well, assisted by Braxton Cooke on the Saxophone. Produced out of the artist’s 1-bedroom apartment in Los Angeles, JWALK’s record is set to debut on February 2nd, 2023.

“My goal is to play one day on a sold-out tour, and have billions of people listening to my songs, using my pain, and insight as a vehicle for human beings to lift themselves out of dark places,” says JWALK regarding his musical style.

JWALK affirms that his driving motivation is the thirst to become the greatest and the realization that he has the potential to become a superstar. However, for the artist, music is mainly meant for the fans. Whenever people reach out to him and tell him how his music has made them feel, the artist’s motivation to do more and do better gets rejuvenated.

Determined to not be written off as just another Soundcloud rapper, JWALK is confident that he has all that it takes. His uniqueness and flair remain unmatched, expressed by the versatile blends of R&B, Hip Hop, and Pop, which he ingeniously invents.

JWALK is currently writing and developing his second EP, as well as a follow-up project that he plans on releasing sometime at the end of Q2 in the Springtime. Moreover, he is also working on his second full-length album in Copenhagen, which he hopes to share with fans soon.

ABOUT

JWALK is a 25-year-old singer-songwriter from Atlanta, Georgia. The inventive artist has been making music since he was 17 years old. However, he did not decide to pursue it professionally until a while later.

Interestingly, JWALK’s musical trajectory began after he got out of a relationship and had not written a song in a year, submerged in desolation. However, it was at a rave for his friend’s 30th birthday party that JWALK was approached by an ‘Owl’ who spoke with such heavy authority that the artist took him to be the voice of God and nothing less.

In his intriguing vision, JWALK was informed to finish his record for the societal impact it will have will be much greater than himself. Consequently, as an obligation to God, as well as his future fans (family), JWALK began his musical journey.

With the release of the instant Street classic ‘Basic’s’ Where Coca Lavoe linked up with the world famous PaperChaserDotCom and of course his brother Desue for some fresh production, they got right back in the studio to do it again and created this hard ground breaking record for the intro of Black History month ‘I believe’ which captures Coca once again in his mode of raw, uncut and unorthodox forms of rap. On this record Desue chops up something he probably heard on a Netflix film, added his 808s & claps then told Coca to fill the rest with vocals that answer questions to what’s asked in the streets daily. What will they have for us next and when will Coca drop an Album?

Peep this PaperChaserDotCom exclusive from Coca titled "I Believe."

Activists outraged over the shooting death of a 36-year-old double amputee demanded justice & accountability.

The Coalition for Community Control Over the Police & the family of Anthony Lowe Jr. held a news conference to bring awareness to Lowe's death.

"He was loved," his cousin, Ellakenyada Gorum, said as she sobbed. "And it's sad how these police are getting away with killing our African American people. Just getting away with it. He was in a wheelchair. What more could he do?"

Lowe's mother also spoke at the news conference, which was held outside the Huntington Park Police Department.

"They murdered my son, in a wheelchair with no legs," said Dorothy Lowe. "They do need to do something about it."

A spokesperson for the family said both of Lowe's legs were amputated at the knees. He was undergoing a mental health crisis when he was shot to death by Huntington Park police Thursday.

Police said they got a call that a man was stabbed by another man in a wheelchair. Officers said when they arrived on the scene they found Lowe with a 12-inch butcher knife.

Video taken by a passerby shows Lowe out of his wheelchair, trying to get away from police using his arms to propel himself along the ground.

In a statement, the department said officers tried to taser Lowe twice but to no avail.

Police said Lowe continued to threaten officers with the knife, prompting the fatal shooting.

Lowe's family said he couldn't have been a threat because he was in a wheelchair & they need more answers from law enforcement.

"You guys knew your lives wasn't in danger," said Gorum. "He's running on his limbs. How cold-hearted could they be?"

PORTSMOUTH, Va. (WAVY) – Arlisha Boykins, a 22-year-old former assistant coach on the Churchland JV girls basketball team in Portsmouth, impersonated a 13-year-old player who played for the Truckers. The student-athlete was out of town at a club basketball tournament, parents of the girl said.

The JV head coach, along with the head coach of the varsity girls basketball team, have both been fired.

Sources tell 10 On Your Side that the varsity coach was “encouraging the behavior” during the game.

The game was Saturday, Jan. 21 in Suffolk against Nansemond River. Video shows Boykins wearing the number 1 jersey for Churchland, actively playing in the game. The child’s parent said she played under the student’s name.

WAVY confirmed Boykins is no longer an employee of Portsmouth Public Schools. Her last day of employment was Jan. 25. A school spokesperson said Churchland High School administration held a meeting with parents & players for both the JV & varsity team.

The players, along with parents, chose to opt out of the remainder of the season.

“Coaches always preach to the kids about integrity & those types of things, so I was just shocked,” the father of the 13-year-old said.

Brooklyn raised Cadillac Rah drops a hot new single “What She Wants” featuring Diop’s Chord. These two artists came up with the concept of the song based off of past relationships. Incorporating their pain into vocals and instruments, helped allow their audience to connect to the song. They wanted their lyrics to speak to everyone and hopefully enlighten people. The concept of the song talks about the struggle of trying to maintain a relationship with a person that you're involved with. Due to 85% of failed relationships, people are not willing to move forward with their next relationship to find out exactly what a person wants.

“Glock On Me” is a hit new musical masterpiece premised on the artist’s own struggles in life and his eventual triumph over those struggles.
