FNC’s Nancy Grace Calls Kyle Rittenhouse ‘Teen Vigilante,’ Guests Label Him ‘Sniveling Kid,’ Possibly Homicidal

Fox News Channel host Nancy Grace is facing a firestorm of controversy over a so-called “investigative” report that was actually a one-hour hit-piece on Kyle Rittenhouse.

The 18-year-old on trial for shooting two rioters and seriously wounding a third. Video clearly shows Rittenhouse was defending himself from the rioters in all three of the attacks.

“Can you have a teen vigilante out there looking for trouble? Is it either that or is it self-defense,” Grace said. “The question tonight is can both be true?”

Throughout much of the program, Fox aired a chyron reading, “TEEN VIGILANTE GUNS DOWN THREE, HEADS TO JURY.”

“Everyone that you speak to says when asked, is Rittenhouse guilty? They say, well, why was he out there with an AR? Why was he out there with an assault rifle,” Grace asked. “But the issue was, was he defending himself? Because you can be a teen vigilante and you can still shoot in self defense.”

Criminal defense attorney Troy Slaten quickly corrected Grace’s erroneous description of Rittenhouse’s weapon — noting that it was not an “assault rifle.”

Grace also wondered whether or not the 18-year-old faked the emotional outburst that happened during his testimony.

“Is that real? Is he really crying? Or did his lawyer coach him hour after hour after hour about when to start crying,” Grace asked. “Did he stick him with a pen or is he really crying?”

Grace referred to those gunned down in the Kenosha riots as “victims” – including convicted child sex offender Joseph Rosenbaum.

But is it real?

Grace referred to those gunned down in the Kenosha riots as “victims” – including convicted child sex offender Joseph Rosenbaum.

Dr. Bethany Marshall, a psychoanalyst, asked whether Rittenhouse might be “homicidal.”

“He seems to have this grandiose entitlement,” Marshall told Grace. “He represents that he’s a medic even though he has no formal training as a medic. He thinks he can protect an auto body shop even though he’s not a policeman. He thinks he can enforce the law even though he’s just a sniveling little kid.”

Grace took issue with Rittenhouse traveling to Kenosha – even though that’s where his father lived.

“It would be a cold day in H-E double L that my son would be out with that slung over his shoulder at night 25 miles away from home,” she said. “How did that happen? Why is he out 25 miles away from home with THAT (gun) slung over his shoulder? Now, what does that have to do with self defense? Nothing. But that’s just a question.”

@FoxNews TEEN VIGILANTE GUNS DOWN THREE? VIGILANTE implies taking the law into his own hands, KR rightfully defended himself so not a vigilante. GUNS DOWN implies shooting without just cause, again self defense. Nancy Grace's show tonight was garbage! pic.twitter.com/Lp2VPgZ85v

Nancy Grease needs to go back to the Human Lost Network (HLN).

Nancy's ignorance and bias were disgusting. She preferred to offer her own parenting style over the law.

I turned it off after 5 minutes.

She was on (twice I think) during the Gabby/Brian drama that was going on. I happened to be walking by the den & stopped briefly to watch. She had a panel - the people weren’t bad, she just didn’t let them talk.

I have never heard such STUPID questions ... it was insulting to your intelligence to even watch. I can’t believe FOX let her on with that drivel.

Thank goodness I don’t watch her, and she’s relegated to a streaming service, that’s how bad she is.

There was a time when I thought she was a conservative. She is from GEORGIA......................

FROM WIKI:

Career as prosecutor
Grace worked for nearly a decade in the Atlanta-Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney’s office as Special Prosecutor. Her work focused on felony cases involving serial murder, serial rape, serial child molestation, and serial arson.[7] Grace left the prosecutors’ office after the District Attorney she had been working under decided not to run for reelection.[8]

While a prosecutor, Grace was reprimanded by the Supreme Court of Georgia for withholding evidence and for making improper statements in a 1997 arson and murder case. The court overturned the conviction in that case and found that Grace’s behavior “demonstrated her disregard of the notions of due process and fairness and was inexcusable.”[9] As well, a 2005 federal appeals opinion by Judge William H. Pryor, Jr. found that Grace “played fast and loose” with core ethical rules in a 1990 triple murder case, including the withholding of evidence and allowing a police detective to testify falsely under oath. The 1990 murder conviction was upheld despite Grace’s prosecutorial misconduct.

Will be very interesting to see the week over week viewer numbers. My guess is that by next week, her numbers will be even lower than the Communist News Network.....

That’s funny. One of the many reasons I don’t pay for that garbage.

Nancy Grace is an fat ugly lefty Karen.

I have never liked or watched her because she is what people used to accurately call a "f**king nag."

I was eating dinner in a restaurant at the bar this weekend sitting next to an couple in their 50s who were arguing and the woman was a sharp-tongued harpy. As I was leaving I said "Sorry but I couldn't help overhearing your conversation. My only advice to the both of you is if you don't face the world together it will tear you apart. The woman looked at her boyfriend/husband/gimp/whatever and replied "Damned right!" Then I ended it with "That being said, nobody likes a nag." While looking her right in the eye while wearing my best shit-eating grin. Then I laughed, got up and walked away while she sported the OMG bitch face.
