One lawsuit alleges wrongful death under the Federal Tort Claims Act, while a 149 page complaint against individuals—including Stephen Miller, Tom Homan, and Kristi Noem—alleges an unlawful conspiracy. This second suit names "Operation Metro Surge," claiming it targeted Somali and Hispanic communities in Minnesota to intimidate witnesses. The plaintiffs cite the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871 and Bivens to seek compensation for Good’s death and the injuries suffered by her partner, Rebecca Good.
