There will be riots regardless.
But even with the same actions here and change the race of the attackers? Yes. Had they been black, Kyle would stand a much stronger chance of being convicted in 2021 America.
The only reason he had a fighting chance is because he killed two other White men.
I heard talk that there were numerous Brady Violations committed by the prosecution.
wow... 36 pages.
Not Guilt.
done.
save a forest.
The worst is the ‘high res’ video the DOJ had and turned over two weeks ago. That’s where the ‘enhanced’ image now the entire basis of the prosecution came from.
Yeah, but onemof them was a home pedophile- that is what has the left so enraged apparently. The left think, and actual,6 said this, that “everyone should expect to get beat up from time to time” and then claim that getting beat up,isn’t a reason to shoot someone. Problem for the scum who have said this is that no, it wasn’t a simple one on one fist fight, there were guns involved and fired and Kyle had every right at that point to fire back at his pursuers who were screaming that they were gonna kill him as they Chased him, in a mob no less, down the road
I don’t believe it. With his rap sheet they’d have to have recognized him and known him. They had a year to find this man. Did they even bother to look for him? If he’s on probation they already have him and are in contact with this man.
“However, when Rittenhouse looked down for a split second, Grosskreutz pulled out a handgun and pointed it at Rittenhouse’s head.”
He had the gun in his had before this. Kyle lowered his gun when G’s hands went up with the pistol in his hand.
It certainly appears that way.
Rhetorical questions: if the State learned the identity of Jump Kick, did they turn that info over to the Defense promptly?
If the State persisted in saying they didn’t know his identity at trial, wasn’t that a form of lying to the court and the jury?
If KR was charged with firing at Jump Kick, and the State knew who he was, for him not to be a witness is crazy. Not informing the jury of this guy’s character changes their perception of the whole event.
Does Jump Kick Man have a name?
It’s prosecutorial misconduct.
I hope Kyle’s lawyers prepare a motion to dismiss with prejudice as the judge had already warned them.
This is a violation of the law and they LIED IN COURT about not knowing who this guy was.
Not only should Kyle walk the ADA should be disbarred.
Yes, but apparently no one knew it until after the trial arguments finished... /s
All good points.
Jump kick man is an alleged VICTIM HERE! There’s a charge about the shots Kyle filed at the guy after getting kicked.
So, YES, the prosecution has to ID him.
If true and his identity was not disclosed to the defense, any conviction could be overturned on appeal. Definitely would be a discovery violation.
High probability that's a yes. Also, it proves that Rittenhouse was attacked before he fired a shot.
If the prosecution knew the identity and location of a witness and did not disclose it to the defense, isn't that grounds for a mistrial?
The prosecution spent the entire trial saying nobody knew the identity of jump-kick-man. Yet, they did.
If the DA shielded this witness, and the one known as Mr Yellow Pants, this would add to the prosecutorial misconduct, and could be grounds for a mistrial, or a reversal in case of a conviction.
Maybe. But during that whole chaotic mess, Kyle was the model of situational awareness and restraint. It’s just as likely that he knew exactly what he had to do, and did it, as with every other time he was forced into the use of deadly force.
