YouTube, Reddit and a body armor manufacturer were among the businesses that helped enable the gunman who killed 10 Black people in a racist attack at a Buffalo, New York, supermarket, according to a pair of lawsuits announced Wednesday.
The complementary lawsuits filed by Everytown Law in state court in Buffalo claim that the massacre at Tops supermarket in May 2022 was made possible by a host of companies and individuals, from tech giants to a local gun shop to the gunman's parents. The suits were filed Tuesday on behalf of the son of a 65-year-old victim and a group of survivors who say they're still traumatized more than a year later. Everytown Law is the litigation arm of Everytown for Gun Safety Support Fund.
