Prosecutor enumerates & acknowledges:
- The rifle was purchased and stored in-state on Kyle’s behalf (eviscerated the “he brought it across state lines” trope), possessed & used only in presence of actual purchaser.
- Kyle was present to defend property he had an interest in, and was observed performing other socially constructive actions (offering aid, etc).
- Kyle was involved in the “flaming dumpster” incident (demonstrably helpful).
- Kyle ran toward Rosenbaum, as shown by FBI overhead surveillance (which couples with the ground video showing Kyle _running_past_ Rosenbaum, with Rosenbaum immediately attacking & pursuing Kyle).
- Kyle turns to see Rosenbaum, shirtless and screaming threats with a flaming city as backdrop, closing fast. Kyle attempts to deter Rittenhouse, who persists.
- Surprise gunshot occurs within 30 feet.
- All considered, Kyle fires 4 shots (sure seems justified at this point).
- Last shot enters Rosenbaum’s back. (This is the only shot which can be questioned, fitting well within body mechanics of a falling perp and the shooter firing properly until threat ends.)
Incredible opening.
Cleaning graffiti left behind by Antifa/BLM as well, earlier that same day.
