Is Kyle innocent?

After 27 hours of deliberation over the course of four days, a jury declared Kyle Rittenhouse not guilty on the five charges he faced after fatally shooting two people and wounding a third during a night of unrest in Kenosha, Wis., last year.

Who are Kyle Rittenhouse lawyers?

In the days after the shootings, Rittenhouse — who brought an AR-style rifle to a protest, saying he was protecting a stranger's property — was initially represented by attorneys John Pierce and Lin Wood, who painted Rittenhouse as a defender of liberty and a patriot who was exercising his right to bear arms.

How many people did Rittenhouse kill?

Edit: Rittenhouse shot three people not four, and there were two fatalities and one serious injury. I also added some references to WI case law. Also Rosenbaum’s criminal and mental health history are likely not relevant factors unless Rittenhouse was aware of his propensity. There is no indication that Rittenhouse knew about Rosenbaum’s checkered past.

What caused Kyle to run from Rosenbaum?

Another possible scenario is that Kyle was running from Rosenbaum because he had pointed his rifle at him earlier (during the confrontation over the dumpster?), or was simply handling the rifle like an idiot in his presence; and Rosenbaum got angry. Another scenario is that Rosenbaum confused Rittenhouse with another person he saw earlier that evening who looked similar. (Another possibility is that Rosenbaum was simply trying to steal his rifle; but defense of property is not a basis for self defense in this scenario) In the world of vigilantes that Rittenhouse was operating, if a citizen can threaten other citizens with a gun to protect property that they don’t own, and have not been deputized to protect; then why can’t an adult like Rosenbaum disarm an underage kid who is handling a gun improperly and posing a risk to others? Or, who looks like a young gunman who was acting aggressively earlier. Again, nobody is acting under color of law or express legal authority. It’s all about what people reasonably believe is a threat to their personal safety. Nobody is automatically entitled to any presumption. This gives a jury a lot of leeway.

Did Rittenhouse lose control of his gun?

The other problem is that Rittenhouse was not in any real danger of losing control of the firearm during the initial confrontation. It is clear that the harness kept the firearm securely attached to his person and that it was not in a position where it could easily be taken from him or used against him. In other words, Rittenhouse had an opportunity to use less lethal force to defend himself (and his attached gun) before either brandishing or pointing the gun at Rosenbaum. Or to put it another way, as he approached, Rosenbaum had the ability to punch or kick Rittenhouse; and Rittenhouse had the right to use like force to oppose that potential physical confrontation with punches and kicks. But, he did not. Instead, he pointed the rifle at Rosenbaum, which is lethal force; and then almost immediately shot him when Rosenbaum reached for the rifle, which was pointed at him.

Was Rittenhouse legally allowed to carry a firearm?

Rittenhouse was not legally permitted to carry a firearm. Despite the arguments about possessing a hunting rifle, or discussions of how Rittenhouse came to be in possession of the rifle, Rittenhouse was a minor and was brandishing a firearm in public. So, was Rittenhouse defending his life from Rosenbaum? Or was he defending a firearm he was not legally permitted to possess, carry, or brandish? McGinnis, the eyewitness who had interviewed Rittenhouse for the Daily Caller earlier that evening, gave a statement to the police where he indicated that he told Rittenhouse earlier in the evening that Rittenhouse was “not handling the gun very well.” According to that statement, Rosenbaum made no express threats to kill Rittenhouse. He was trying to disarm him and Rittenhouse shot him at close range. https://bloximages.chicago2.vip.townnews.com/journaltimes.com/content/tncms/assets/v3/editorial/4/6f/46ff33b7-0bd7-55e6-8f2f-9ded0582862f/5f4933274cde9.pdf.pdf

Does Rittenhouse have self defense?

Rittenhouse doesn’t have an easy self-defense case. There certainly are enough facts to present that defense to the jury, but if he loses it with respect to the first killing, he’s likely to lose it for the other two shootings, one of which resulted in death.

Did Rittenhouse have the defense of accidental murder?

App. LEXIS 1509, *3, 190 Wis. 2d 468, 528 N.W.2d 91. Under those facts, the proverbial fight over the gun, the shooter (Martin) was convicted. Also, Rittenhouse clearly does not have the defense of accidental murder. Here is another interesting case over a struggle over a gun where the issue was whether it was self defense or accidental:

Did Rittenhouse carry a rifle?

Again, the problem begins and will probably end with Rittenhouse illegally carrying a firearm and pointing it at Rosenbaum the second the confrontation occurred before the shooting, which resulted in a momentary struggle over the possession of the rifle. The video and witness statement appear to show that Rittenhouse was protecting a rifle he was not legally permitted to carry; and Rosenbaum was clearly trying to get the rifle, which Rittenhouse was illegally carrying.
