You need to look at the difference between a ‘hate crime’ and a ‘hate incident.’ They’re not the same thing. There could be eye witness evidence or other recordings of a crime too, but in that case it’d be a matter for the police rather than the family.
Generally, when a person or group sues someone else, they’re seeking for damages. Such as loss of property, medical bills, reputation which causes loss of work etc. It’s hard to argue what the damages here would be.
I believe the police are also looking into the matter though, so something could come of it, including money to the family.
So you’re not American, not familiar with our laws, but confident enough to write six paragraphs and then admit that the police are looking into it and something may come of it?
My original point was that I’m not sure what the NAAPC are planning to achieve, I hope the police can discover enough through eye witness accounts to try her in a criminal court but from what I’ve seen there’s no criminal act; just a shitty person being shit. What scares me the most is the support.
It makes me so angry. Suing people for hating your skin color is an incredibly American concept. All laws are “interpretable” and in all other first world countries, there is no issue with prohibiting and punishing idiots that hate others for their skin color, and it works also to remove those idiots. There’s some serious playing stupid energy in your nation
