As the Kyle Rittenhouse case goes down to the wire, there are credible reports that the jurors’ verdict count is a lot closer than many have been led to believe.
The volatile situation outside of the Kenosha, Wisconsin courtroom was reported by Newsmax, which relates that sources have informed it the current verdict count is split.
The Newsmax reporter pointed to several media reports that indicate they overheard Kyle Rittenhouse’s attorney Mark Richards saying that he believes the jury is at a ‘6-6 split.’
The startling report comes amidst reports of juror intimidation and even an attempted report that would expose jurors to doxxing.
“Last evening, a person who identified himself as James J. Morrison and who claimed that he was a producer with NBC news, employed for MSNBC… and under the supervision of someone named Irene Byon in NY for MSNBC,” the Judge began.
“The police stopped him because he was following at a distance of about a block,” he continued. “And went through a red light. Pulled him over and inquired of him what was going on.”
“And he gave that information. And he stated that he had been instructed by Ms. Byon to follow the jury bus,” the Judge added. “The matter is under further investigation at this point. That’s the latest I have.”
“He was ticketed for violating a traffic control signal,” he went on. “He’s not here today, from what I am told. I have instructed that nobody from MNSBC News will be permitted in this building for the duration of this trial. This is a very serious matter and I don’t know what the ultimate truth of it is, but absolutely it would go without much thinking that someone who is following a jury bus, that is a very, extremely serious matter...”

PATRIOT PING
If they convinced 6 jurors that Rittenhouse is guilty, yikes!
I would guess his estimate is based on watching the jurors. That may be why they have been pushing for a mistrial.
“I don’t know what the ultimate truth of it is, but absolutely it would go without much thinking that someone who is following a jury bus, that is a very, extremely serious matter”
Yea, but without jury intimidation, how are we going to get them to give us the correct verdict?
how is 6/6 a lot closer? What does that mean?
Also, Rittenhouse attorney is giving his opinion, there is NOWAY he knows the actually polling going on inside the deliberation room.
It means hung and it also means that 6 jurors are scared out of their minds of voting not guilty.
Jim Morrison was shown the door(s).
It may mean some are woke.
Yeah, media needs the hyped up atmosphere. The count is more liky 10-2 to acquit on all charges. Kyle cannot get a fair verdict in the atmosphere thesh!tbrain media has created in order to further inflame the nation using irrational racebaiting.
you are forgetting this jury is from that area which is leftwing district
I agree, it’s poorly worded. If anything, 6/6 would indicate a strong possibility of a mistrial. Still, that 6 jurors would vote for conviction in such a weak case is disappointing and disturbing.
woke = Bolsheviks
Misleading headline. It is a SWAG, nothing more.
It’s absolutely amazing that people would find him guilty.
If it’s a 6-6 split they may as well come in and tell the judge. Nobody is going to change their vote now, after three days of arguing among themselves.
They also remember the riots of their town.
have you been asleep for the last ten years? sorry but the far left along with the media/social media take over of all speech, has created massive cultural Marxism.
Well, there are six women on it. And they’re are not known, generally, for being logical and rational.
Agree: Yikes!
Let's hope it isn't true, or that a hung jury with prejudice will sink the sham persecution down.
