A judge ruled Friday that prosecutors can't argue that a man who shot three people during a protest against police brutality in Wisconsin is affiliated with the Proud Boys or that he beat up a woman months before the shootings, bolstering his position as he prepares for a politically charged trial.
Kyle Rittenhouse is set to stand trial beginning Nov. 1 on multiple counts, including homicide. The 18-year-old argues he opened fire in self-defense after the men attacked him. Prosecutors signaled that they plan to show infrared video from an FBI surveillance plane that proves Rittenhouse chased down the first man he shot.

And even if they could Proud Boys is not who they are painting them to be, it isn’t against the law, and is protected by the 4th Amendment.
As he was running AWAY from them, clearly an act of self defense after he fell down and was attacked.
Seems as if the corrupt prosecutor’s case is falling apart, piece by piece.
Even well aware of the technology, I am not sure I would find this compelling in light of the cellphone videos we have seen of Kyle being chased and attacked.
will it matter to the brainwashed on the jury?
True, The proud Boys are the victims of previous Deep Swamp, Democrat and Mainstream media Character Assassination Campaigns using False Flag Hoax techniques, among others.
That, interestingly can't seem to be used to charge, arrest or prosecute one single Antifa or BLM Terrorist.
What is disturbing is that the FBI was observing him, and never helped. Just recorded it.
Now that the defense knows the prosecution claims this video exists, they have legitimate claim to obtain it before the trial.
Fascinating,that the FBI was recording in infra-red but far from compelling. We have, as you noted, plenty of video of Kyle being chased, as well as eye-witness accounts from mere feet away.
It will be interesting to see this video and how it is presented to the jury.
It will be interesting to see what sort of resolution the reported video has.
Many will be interested in the technical details.
Given the prosecution's demonstrated ability and desire to play fast and loose with the facts, I will need to see a lot more before an FBI infrared video (I suspect subject to much interpretation) can override the overwhelming pile of contrary evidence.
The days the FBI was automatically considered credible are long gone.
Withholding evidence from the defense could get the entire case tossed, but it won’t, more’s the pity. Bringing up the Proud Boys and the FBI in the same context might cause some uncomfortable questions about what actual association the two have, (we already know Chairman Enrico Tarrio was an informant). What did the FBI actually know about the events about to unfold in Kenosha and why did they have a drone flying at that particular time? They can’t just blow these off, they’ll be under oath and “sorry, it’s a secret” testimony that worked fine in the House impeachment hearings won’t cut it here.
So the FBI record the riots but don’t lift a finger to stop anybody unless ordered by libtards against political enemies?
Nice 😕
How come his parents haven't been charged yet?
Not only is the FBLie not credible, they both manufacture incriminating evidence, and lose exculpatory evidence.
Another feral that grew up without a father and no parental supervision going out at night with a weapon.
The Proud Boys are not even bad folks.
