The family of a Marine killed in Afghanistan last year reportedly filed a defamation lawsuit against actor Alec Baldwin last week for the second time, accusing him of being “negligent and reckless” in posting about the service member’s sister being at a protest on Jan. 6, 2021.
The lawsuit was filed by Roice McCollum and Cheyenne McCollum of Wyoming, the sisters of Marine Lance Corporal Rylee J. McCollum, who died in Afghanistan, and his widow, Jiennah McCollum, of San Diego.
The family originally filed a suit in Wyoming, which was dismissed in May because the court does not have jurisdiction over Baldwin, who lives in New York, according to the New York Post.
