As the trial for the officer who killed 20-year-old Daunte Wright spends, new allegations are attempting to paint the young man as a violent offender.

In multiple civil lawsuits filed against Wright’s estate, he has been accused of shooting his former classma]e. One of the suits claimed that 16-year-old Caleb Livingston was shot in the head at a gas station by Wright. He is now in a vegetative state.

Three weeks before his death, Wright and an accomplice allegedly shot former classmate Joshua Hodges in the leg and stole his car, according to the second civil lawsuit. Just weeks prior to his death, Wright and another individual shot a classmate in the leg and stole his car.

“[Wright] was accidentally killed by a Brooklyn Center police officer on April 11, 2021, approximately three weeks after his crimes against [Hodges],” the civil complaint states. “After that accidental death, a false narrative began establishing [Wright] as a young person that young people looked up to, when in fact a warrant was in place for his violations of law on bond for a past crime. [He] had previously chosen a life of crime.”

Wright’s legal team are speaking out against the allegations,

“The audacity of this attorney is disappointing, and we implore members of the community to not be drawn in by these opportunistic efforts to tear down Daunte and hurt his family,” they said. “Ploys like these aim to do one thing: distract. But our team will not be distracted in our fight for justice in this case and in our fight for justice for all marginalized communities.”

As of now, officials claim the police shooting was an accident.
