The Charges Against Kyle Rittenhouse
By Grant Baker
On August 27th, prosecutors in Kenosha County filed six charges against Kyle Rittenhouse which read as follows:
First degree reckless homicide, use of a dangerous weapon
First degree recklessly endangering safety, use of a dangerous weapon
First degree intentional homicide, use of a dangerous weapon
Attempt first degree intentional homicide, use of a dangerous weapon
First degree recklessly endangering safety, use of a dangerous weapon
Possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18.
A detailed breakdown of the facts of the case can be found here. What follows is a breakdown of the law applicable to the case.
Counts 1, 3, and 4 relate to shots fired at Joseph Rosenbaum, Anthony Huber, and Gaige Grosskreutz respectively, all of whom are on film attacking Kyle Rittenhouse as he attempts to flee. Count 2 is ancillary to Count 1, relating to Daily Caller reporter Richard McGinnis, who was following Rosenbaum at the time of the incident and was therefore in Kyle’s line of fire. Count 5 refers to the two shots fired at the unknown male who attempted a jumping stomp on Kyle’s head after he tripped and fell while fleeing a violent mob. Both shots missed and the man fled the scene. Count 6 is an attempt to punish Kyle for merely having the gun.
