Major update: The judge in the Rittenhouse case has just informed the media, “I think the jury is going to retire for the evening.”
The twelve jurors in the Kyle Rittenhouse case are in deliberations after a tense court trial that has national ramifications. The prosecution has botched a weak case that alleges Rittenhouse is guilty of killing two men and injuring a third man during a Black Lives Matter riot in Kenosha, Wisconsin in August 2020. Rittenhouse’s defense maintains he acted in self-defense.
Although all of Rittenhouse’s victims were white,all of them had serious criminal records, and they were caught on high-definition video openly chasing and attacking the boy, who was seventeen years old at the time, the U.S. media has once again turned a clear case of self-defense into a racially politicized circus.
The Kenosho Sheriff even released a statement ahead of the Rittenhouse verdict, which was expected to be delivered today or tomorrow.
“The Kenosha County Sheriff’s Department and Kenosha Police Department understand and recognize the anxiety surrounding the Kyle Rittenhouse trial,” the statement says. “There are many questions being asked from our community as well as media outlets.”
“Our departments have worked together and made coordinated efforts over the last year to improve response capabilities to large scale events,” the statement added ominously. “We have strengtheneed our existing relationships with State and Federal resources.”

Still calling BS on this story. The statement attributed to a Marshal would be a crime to disclose. Plus this is a state court matter. There shouldn’t be any US Marshals even in the building
I’m just here to see how many people in the thread misspell “Marshal.”
This case is a big deal and if he’s found guilty which I don’t think he will, it will be just another step towards outlawing self defense.
Agree- the title is linking two separate events- the release of a statement by the Marshall and Prosibiac’s tweet.
BTW- BlackFemaleArmyColonel, a belated Happy Veterans Day to you.
that would be me....
Thank you.
Replace them.
Total BS headline and story
Such a simple task, for Kenosha and Wisconsin, that is.
A decent show of force and creating an atmosphere where anything other than talking in a conversational tone, will get you in handcuffs and led away from the courthouse.
It was reported that a BLM guy smacked a megaphone from someone. Easy Peasy...arrest the BLM guy for assault or disorderly conduct, give the guy with the megaphone a warning that he’s violating a noise ordinance.
Only one way to keep this under control....don’t let the fire start in the first place.
I don’t care about anything, anyone on here says about free speech, etc. I’m all for it and the folks there can say what they want. But much like a referee getting in between two guys to prevent something sideways, the same thing can be done without violating anyone’s rights.
And the moment anyone does anything violent or destructive....off to the pokey you go.
Oddly though, I still have a hard time with BLM being there when everyone involved is WHITE. Just looking for an excuse and yet another reason for someone to have a nice little chat with the local BLM organizer
You mean, “martial.”
(Heavy sarcasm)
As in “Marshall Law”?
.
George Floyd’s family said - if they don’t convict, we’ll get them. We have people watching and filming them.
Of course, the prime thoughts that Jury has is seeing their houses burned down and them fired at work.
Remember, the St. Louis Cop who was cleared twice in the Michael Brown case, was told, you have to go.
Did nothing wrong, but had to go.
Peeps commenting are ignorant. Mob rules

I thought all Antifa/BLM protests were peaceful?
Well, there are plenty of reasons a US Marshal might be in a state courthouse. To testify as a witness, to escort a witness or defendant who is in federal custody, to serve a federal or interstate warrant, or to assist local law enforcement on some matter. He may even be there because Kenosha is anticipating civil unrest after the verdict and the US Marshals are one federal entity that can be called to assist with civil unrest, like we saw Trump do in 2020.
However, as 500 National Guard troops remain on standby in what can be interpreted as an act of jury intimidation, the Kenosha Marshal has made a statement revealing why two jurors are hesitant to come forward with verdicts that radical activists might not like.
Kyle Becker should learn how to punctuate properly. Or how to use proper grammar.
Here in Missouri in the state courts they call all of the court security personnel “marshals”.
“Marshal Law” would be a pretty good name for a Western tv show.
What’s a Kenosha Marshal?
