“Not only were the ruse and shooting needless, but they consummated months of the federal government’s counterproductive harassment, #criminalization, and prosecution of an Idaho family eking out survival while enduring #homelessness brought on by their #eviction at the onset of the #COVID19 pandemic” the lawyers wrote in a letter notifying the agencies of the lawsuit...The family was unable to find another rental and was told that the local emergency shelter options were full, according to the lawsuit. They subsequently moved into their two camper trailers despite no running water. The Roberts family then “moved across Southwest Idaho,” where they were constantly ticketed by law enforcement officers and told to “move on,” the lawsuit adds."
