Denton Loudermill Jr., a Kansas man falsely accused of being involved in a shooting at a Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory rally, has died at 49, as confirmed by his attorney. Loudermill, who was briefly detained but never charged, filed lawsuits against several politicians for sharing false information that labeled him a shooter; these lawsuits were dismissed on jurisdictional grounds. His attorney vowed to continue fighting to clear his name, criticizing the irresponsible actions that led to Loudermill’s distress before his death.
