So the innocent rebel lost his job die to false accusations. Can he now sue those who jailed him and caused his undue duress for damages?

This is a community for discussion, news, and memes pertaining to the video game sub-genre "soulslike".
Given Lemmy's size, the definition of soulslike may be treated relatively loosely. While games like the numerous FromSoft titles, the recent Star Wars Jedi games, Lies of P, Nioh and similar games should be the focus, games that incorporate soulslike elements - like Hollow Knight and Blasphemous, for example - may also be discussed here.
Basic Lemmy-quette applies. Additionally, since flairs don't exist yet, please do make sure to include a marker to denote what game your post is about in square brackets for clarity's sake. An example could be:
[BB] This enemy is so difficult!
or
[DS1] Anyone struggling with the gargoyles?

Should you have any questions, please do let me know.

Fuck yes he can. Civil suit ftw. Where's his go fund me?
Pretty much impossible to sue the government for false imprisonment in the US. And it kinda has to be that way.
Ever spent the night in county? Ever spent a day in court listening to what these people are charged with? It's an education.
I cannot imagine the legal clusterfuck of those people all getting a shot at claims. Most of the guys you're sleeping with are plain losers and idiots. Cops know it, that's why they haul you in so easy. OTOH, they really don't want the hassle and paperwork. But one wrong word, handcuffs.
I have no words to stress this enough, Shut. The. Fuck. Up. Nothing you say will protect you. Nothing.
You can look sideways at your neighbor and get behind bars for "threats". I've skirted it with my MAGA neighbor. Had a guy chase me down the creek last week, on his side. He was very careful to only yell at me, no threats made. (Also, I had a gun, so that helps with politeness when they're twice your size and half your age.)
But THIS guy seems to have a rock and roll case. No threats, implicit or explicit. I can see the cops going after him, they have to if ordered, but the DA should have dropped this like a hot fucking rock. "We're so sorry, don't sue us. K thanx bye!"
