Kyle Rittenhouse Jury Selected – Trial Begins Tuesday

[Ghost Bear]

Speaking as a former assistant prosecuting attorney (albeit not one involved in criminal cases), this guy is an embarrassment to the entire prosecuting community.

(I figured we deserved a community, too. Everyone else seems to have one).

On the Rekieta Law livestream (linked above) this morning, the panel of lawyers that was commenting on the trial called Binger "the kind of lawyer that gives lawyers a bad name."

The left went from, 'Defund the police' and 'End mass incarceration' to, 'The Prosecutor is always right' real fast.

Isn't that the truth. Forget all that "fight the system" crap of the 60s. The left is Wokey McWoke these days, and they just want people thrown in jail.

I don't think the guy is qualified to be an ambulance chaser when his DA days are over.

Judge is allowing the algorithm-doctored picture to be presented

Oh....photoshopped.

The enhanced drone footage shows Rittenhouse pointing his rifle at Ziminskis but we really can't tell because Ziminskis asked to be cropped out.

Right.

Gimme 10 minutes alone with LaBron and no witnesses,and I can have him crying like a little baby.

@catfish1957

I agree

The jury  knows that the State’s case is collapsing. But they are also worried about their own safety going forward. The judge declaring a mistrial  with prejudice will let the jury off the hook. And this activist who bragged  about threatening the jury needs to be found and arrested

It’s too bad that we are entering a period of justice by mob rule, and hopefully someone is going to clamp down on that at some point. But that’s where we find ourselves today

@LMAO

"entering"?????

It's been that way for at least 20 years when it comes to convicting black thugs.

@mountaineer

I suspect that has a LOT to do with his testimony for the defense.

All I know is if I am ever in trouble, I hope Binger is the prosecutor

Day 8 of the Rittenhouse trial, defense rests its case

Day eight has since concluded and jurors will be back on Monday.

The defense rested its case in the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse on Thursday.

The jury will hear closing arguments on Monday.

Once the defense finishes calling witnesses then each side will make a closing argument. From there the judge will explain to the jury the rules of law that apply to the case and lay out the decisions jury members must make. At that point, deliberation would begin. There is no way to know how long deliberations might last.

The defense rested its case shortly after 3:30 p.m. Prosecutors asked the judge to allow for additional rebuttal witnesses to debunk some of Rittenhouse's testimony on the stand Wednesday.

With the evidentiary part of the trial over, the jury was sent home for a three day weekend. Friday, the judge and attorneys will hammer out the details of Monday’s closing arguments and jury instructions. Both sides agreed they wanted to wait until Monday for the arguments, having the weekend to prepare. The judge has limited the time for closing arguments to two and a half hours per side.

Jury instructions are also expected to take at least an hour. That is where the state has said they will ask for “lesser included charges.” Lesser included charges allow the jury to find Rittenhouse guilty of a lesser charge which would carry with it a lower burden of proof and sentence. TMJ4 legal analysts say it is also a way for the jury to compromise and avoid a hung jury.

Under the current time frame laid out, the just in the Rittenhouse case could get the case for deliberation as early as Monday afternoon.

Paramedic shot by Rittenhouse says teen 'was an active shooter'
By Jordan Williams - 11/11/21 06:59 PM EST

A paramedic who, along with two others, was shot by Kyle Rittenhouse during protests against racial injustice in Kenosha, Wisc., last year said in an interview that the teenager was an “active shooter.”

Gaige Grosskreutz survived being shot in the arm on Aug. 25, 2020, amid protests against the police shooting of Jacob Blake. Both of the other men Rittenhouse shot, Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, died.

In an interview on ABC News’s “Good Morning America” on Thursday, Grosskreutz was asked what he wanted people to remember most about the trial.

"I think the most important thing to remember is that Kyle Rittenhouse was an active shooter,” he said. “He murdered two men, and he attempted to murder me.”

Grosskreutz’s comments come as Rittenhouse stands trial for six charges in connection with the shootings, including homicide.

I'm sorry if someone says they're coming at me and they are going to kill me I take them at their word.

Yep. Sh*t just got real.

[Smokin Joe]

I watch Kyle and wonder how a 17 year old lives his life, knowing that he’s killed a man. I believe it was self-defense, but that’s still a huge burden for a young man.

Now think of all the servicemen who enlisted at 17 over the past century (or younger, earlier on).
It depends on the person and the circumstances, and yes, it will be a life changing event.

"Lower burden of proof???"

I thought the burden was "beyond a reasonable doubt", no matter what the charges are.
