The family of Keith Bender, the bouncer allegedly shot by Proof of D-12, has filed a lawsuit against Proof’s estate.
The lawsuit was lodged by the deceased bouncers loved ones – wife Jacqueline and mother Leona – and stated that Proof "violently assaulted and battered [Bender], culminating with the infection of a gunshot injury that caused the death of Mr. Bender."
Proof’s lawyer was unable to comment, however Michael Cafferty, a lawyer for the Bender family said, "It's shameful that Mr. Holton is being lauded as a hero and martyr, when in fact, it was his own criminalistic conduct that not only led to his death, but took the life of an honorable, innocent man."
Both Keith Bender and Proof (aka Deshaun Holton) were killed in the altercation last month that took place at the CCC Nightlcub, 8 Mile Road.
