JUST IN | The lawsuit against city officials claiming they played a role in the death of Chris Beaty has been dismissed by a federal judge.
Chris Beaty was shot and killed in downtown Indianapolis in May 2020 during protests. In May 2022, his mother filed a wrongful death lawsuit claiming the city and officials violated Beaty's 14th amendment rights by failing to protect him and the public by failing to provide adequate training to police officers.
Pratt stated her feelings of empathy for Cooper but stated “the constitution does not guarantee Beaty’s safety from criminals.” Judge Pratt says the lawsuit is unable to connect the protests in downtown Indy to the crime that was committed against Beaty. “Apart from the crime occurring in the same region of the City and around the time the protests ended, there is no factual allegation that supports a finding that the protests and Beaty’s murder are connected—let alone that the crime was somehow caused by the Defendants,” Pratt said.“The Complaint is devoid of facts that any Defendant acted to create or enhance a danger Beaty otherwise would not have faced.
