Kyle Rittenhouse, the 17-year-old accused of shooting and killing two protesters in Kenosha, Wis., earlier this year, was released from the Kenosha County Jail on Friday afternoon.
The Kenosha County Sheriff’s Office confirmed to The Hill that Rittenhouse was released after his $2 million bond was paid through an account set up by his attorneys.
Rittenhouse is charged with first-degree intentional homicide in the killing of two protesters and attempted intentional homicide in the wounding of a third when police say he shot three people in August during Kenosha’s protests over the police shooting of Jacob Blake.
He’s also facing a misdemeanor charge of underage firearm possession for wielding a semi-automatic rifle. He faces life in prison.
