COUNTY OF RIDGEWAY
Civil Action No. _______________
SADOIMPACTO,
Plaintiff,
v.
AULAARCAD1US and JOHNPAPS1,
Defendants.
______________________________________________________________________________
COMPLAINT FOR DAMAGES
______________________________________________________________________________
Plaintiff sadoimpacto (“Sado”), by and for his Complaint against Defendants AulaArcad1us
(“Arcadius”) and JohnPaps1 (“Paps”), alleges as follows:
PARTIES, JURISDICTION, AND VENUE
1. This is an action brought under 1 Ridg. Stat. §§ 3109, 3105, 3103, and 3102 to
recover damages for two successive instances of wrongful death, negligence, assault, and battery.
2. Plaintiff Sado is a resident of Ridgeway County, State of Ridgeway.
3. Defendants Arcadius and Paps are, upon information and belief, residents of
Ridgeway County, State of Ridgeway.
4. Jurisdiction of this court is invoked pursuant to Ridg. Const. Art. V, § IV.
5. Venue is proper in this county because a substantial part of the events or omissions
giving rise to the claims occurred here.
FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
6. On the evening of July 11, 2025, Mr. Sado was present in Sterling Heights. He had
just left The Hub and was walking toward Redwood Street.
1
7. At the same time, Defendant Arcadius was operating a yellow taxi and driving on the
street adjacent to the sidewalk where Mr. Sado was. Defendant Paps was seated in the back seat.
8. Defendant Arcadius suddenly and without warning swerved the vehicle onto the
sidewalk, driving over the embankment and striking Mr. Sado at a high rate of speed, sending him
airborne and causing him to crash violently onto the pavement.
9. After striking Mr. Sado, Defendant Arcadius did not stop to render aid, call for help,
or check on Mr. Sado’s condition. Instead, he immediately fled the scene and drove into a nearby
body shop.
10. Despite being severely injured and disoriented, Mr. Sado managed to get up and
follow the taxi on foot, attempting to understand why he had been targeted and to identify the driver
responsible for the attack.
11. As Mr. Sado approached the driver's side of the vehicle inside the body shop,
Defendant Arcadius exited the vehicle, abruptly drew a firearm, and without hesitation shot Mr.
Sado multiple times at close range.
12. Mr. Sado died instantly from the gunshot wounds inflicted by Defendant Arcadius.1
13. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Sado respawned and began walking through the parking lot of
YouBuyCarNow in Sterling Heights, shaken and attempting to recover from the initial attacks.
14. Defendant Arcadius, having located Mr. Sado again, drove across the street into the
parking lot at high speed, deliberately struck Mr. Sado with the vehicle, and dragged his body across
the parking lot asphalt and into the middle of the street.
15. While being dragged, Mr. Sado was unable to resist or defend himself, experiencing
significant additional physical trauma and public humiliation as he was pulled along in front of
bystanders and passing vehicles.
1 Paragraphs 6–12 are hereinafter referred to as Incident One.
2
16. After Mr. Sado was flung to the ground and left immobilized, Defendant Paps exited
the back seat of the vehicle.
17. Defendant Paps approached Mr. Sado, stood over his body, and drew a firearm.
Without warning or provocation, he proceeded to shoot Mr. Sado execution-style, firing multiple
rounds into his body at point-blank range until he was motionless.2
18. Throughout the series of events, Defendants Arcadius and Paps acted together in a
coordinated, concerted, and relentless manner, tracking Mr. Sado’s movements, targeting him
repeatedly, and inflicting extreme fear and terror.
19. At no point did either Defendant offer assistance, express remorse, or attempt to
disengage from their actions; instead, they continually pursued Mr. Sado with the apparent intent to
inflict maximum harm and terror.
20. The entire sequence of violent acts was unprovoked and targeted solely at Mr. Sado,
who at all relevant times posed no threat to justify any use of force against him.
FIRST CLAIM FOR RELIEF
Wrongful Death – Incident One
(Against Defendants Arcadius and Paps)
21. Mr. Sado reincorporates and realleges all prior paragraphs fully herein.
22. During Incident One, Defendant Arcadius intentionally struck Mr. Sado with a
vehicle and then shot him multiple times at close range, causing his immediate death.
23. Defendant Paps acted in concert with Defendant Arcadius by encouraging, assisting,
and participating in the plan to harm Mr. Sado, thereby jointly contributing to the fatal outcome.
24. Pursuant to Restatement (Second) of Torts § 876, individuals who act in concert with
another to commit a wrongful act, or give substantial assistance or encouragement to the wrongful
act, are jointly and severally liable for resulting harm.
2 Paragraphs 12–17 are hereinafter referred to as Incident Two.
3
25. Defendants are therefore jointly and severally liable for causing Mr. Sado’s death
during Incident One.
26. Pursuant to 1 Ridg. Stat. § 3109, “Any individual who causes the death of another
without legal cause or justification shall be [liable for] wrongful death….”
27. As a direct and proximate result of Defendants’ concerted and coordinated conduct,
Mr. Sado suffered severe injury, death, and other economic and non-economic harms.
SECOND CLAIM FOR RELIEF
Wrongful Death – Incident Two
(Against Defendants Arcadius and Paps)
28. Mr. Sado reincorporates and realleges all prior paragraphs fully herein.
29. During Incident Two, Defendant Arcadius intentionally drove into Mr. Sado in a
parking lot, dragging his body across the pavement and into the street, causing severe trauma.
30. After Mr. Sado was flung to the ground and incapacitated, Defendant Paps exited the
vehicle, approached Mr. Sado, and shot him multiple times at close range in an execution-style
manner, resulting in his immediate death.
31. Defendant Arcadius acted in concert with Defendant Paps by facilitating the final
attack, encouraging and assisting Paps’s actions, and jointly participating in causing Mr. Sado’s death.
32. Pursuant to Restatement (Second) of Torts § 876, individuals who act in concert with
another to commit a wrongful act, or give substantial assistance or encouragement to the wrongful
act, are jointly and severally liable for resulting harm.
33. Defendants are therefore jointly and severally liable for causing Mr. Sado’s death
during Incident Two.
34. Pursuant to 1 Ridg. Stat. § 3109, “Any individual who causes the death of another
without legal cause or justification shall be [liable for] wrongful death….”

35. As a direct and proximate result of Defendants’ concerted and coordinated conduct,
Mr. Sado suffered severe injury, death, and other economic and non-economic harms.
THIRD CLAIM FOR RELIEF
Negligence
(Against Defendants Arcadius and Paps)
36. Mr. Sado reincorporates and realleges all prior paragraphs fully herein.
37. Defendants Arcadius and Paps each owed a duty of care to Mr. Sado to avoid
causing him foreseeable harm and to refrain from engaging in violent or reckless conduct.
38. Defendant Arcadius breached this duty by intentionally swerving onto the sidewalk
and striking Mr. Sado during Incident One, and by driving into him during Incident Two.
39. Defendant Paps breached this duty by encouraging, assisting, and directly
participating in violent acts against Mr. Sado, including shooting him at close range.
40. Pursuant to 1 Ridg. Stat. § 3105, “Any individual who owes a duty of care to another
individual, and that other individual suffers injury as a result of a breach of that duty to care, is
negligence….”
41. As a direct and proximate result of Defendants’ breaches of their duties of care, Mr.
Sado suffered severe injury, death, and other economic and non-economic harms.
FOURTH CLAIM FOR RELIEF
Assault and Battery
(Against Defendants Arcadius and Paps)
42. Mr. Sado reincorporates and realleges all prior paragraphs fully herein.
43. During both incidents, Defendants Arcadius and Paps intentionally and voluntarily
engaged in conduct that caused Mr. Sado to experience reasonable apprehension of immediate
harmful or offensive contact, including chasing him down and brandishing firearms.
44. Defendants subsequently made unconsented harmful and offensive physical contact
with Mr. Sado by striking him with a vehicle, dragging him, and shooting him multiple times.
5
45. Pursuant to 1 Ridg. Stat. § 3103, “Any individual who intentionally and voluntarily
caused reasonable apprehension of an immediate harmful or offensive contact is assault….”
46. Pursuant to 1 Ridg. Stat. § 3102, “Any individual who brings unconsented harmful or
offensive contact against another person is battery….”
47. As a direct and proximate result of Defendants’ acts of assault and battery, Mr. Sado
suffered severe injury, death, and other economic and non-economic harms.
PRAYER FOR RELIEF

a. Compensatory damages in an amount to be determined at trial, including but not
limited to damages for physical injuries, wrongful death, pain and suffering, loss of
time, inconvenience, and other economic and non-economic losses;

3105, 3103, and 3102;
