Upon a New York trial judge’s advance of a lawsuit by estates and surviving victims of the racially-motivated mass shooting in Buffalo, against social media giants, plaintiffs’ counsel said on Tuesday they’re pleased with the early win, yet prepared for the certain appellate battle to ensue.
On Monday, Erie County Supreme Court Judge Paula Feroleto allowed the case to proceed, noting the teen shooter who killed 10 Blacks and injured three others became aware of a spurious “white replacement theory” that he carried from information and posts on the social media companies’ platforms.
