Kyle Rittenhouse - The Truth in 11 Minutes

[C-south]

What would you call it if you pay an armed person to go protect your property? It sounds like a hired gun to me.

What do you call people who are paid to loot, riot, and vandalize? Sounds like a “hired gun” is what we need a lot more of.

Armed private security???

One flaw…they never received a dime.

 

[FLVOL_79]

This case is great. Its like every witness the prosecution brings up admits that they or the "victims" actually threatened to kill the dude or pointed a gun at him. Hopefully this hero is out for Xmas.

Security.

Security guard perhaps?

They're literally just confirming what was 100% visible in all the videos.

Hopefully so. He should be given a medal for braining that convicted child molester with an AR round.

The other one was a woman abuser, and if I recall correctly so is the guy whose bicep he blew off. Two gold medals and a silver for him!

I am stunned the defense put him on the stand.

Rittenhouse? Not watching I'm at work

 

[NorthDallas40]

I am stunned the defense put him on the stand.

They’ve been cranking it out of the park thus far I’d guess they’re prepared.

Did defense move for a directed verdict?

 

[bamawriter]

They’ve been cranking it out of the park thus far I’d guess they’re prepared.

But this is teeing it up for the State to save their case. They were dead in the water. The one chance they have is to make Rittenhouse look bad in front of the jury, and the defense could have denied them that opportunity. I don't understand what the defense thinks they're going to get out of this.

 

[KB5252]

While I don't feel Rittenhouse is a murderer, and his actions that night meet the standard of justified under the law as I understand it. I'm uncomfortable celebrating him as a hero. At best I think he was a naive teenager who put himself in a situation he wasn't best prepared to deal with.... He got lucky he wasn't killed that night.

JMO flame on!

I don't know. I missed the beginning of the day. If they did it was denied.

Very odd. Rittenhouse overriding his counsel? Wants celebrity status more than making sure he is found not guilty?

 

[Boca Vol]

he is very composed for an 18 year old.

Unless they thought their starting position was so bad* they felt it might benefit from the jury seeing KR testify I'm surprised myself.

*Or KR absolutely insisted he get to tell his side of the story in spite of advice from his representation.

Oh I understand completely where you’re coming from they had it locked up. Best case he doesn’t slip up on the stand under cross. Just the way this has gone this defense lawyer seems to be pulling off a great Billy Mayes Hayes

He never should have been put in that situation that is a total failure of the adults in his life.

Kyle Rittenhouse sobs uncontrollably on the stand as he describes being 'ambushed' by BLM protester who swung at him with a heavy chain and threatened to cut out his 'f***ing heart' - before he shot him dead

Kyle Rittenhouse has broken down on the witness stand as recalled the moment he was 'ambushed' by Joseph Rosenbaum the night he shot him dead.

His mother Wendy watched on from the public gallery of Kenosha County Courthouse, weeping, as Judge Bruce Schroeder called a halt to proceedings in the dramatic morning of testimony.

Rittenhouse had taken the stand in his own defense to tell the court that Rosembaum threatened to kill him twice – once while swinging a heavy chain and the second time when he said he would 'cut out your f***ing heart' and 'kill you N-word.'
