Rittenhouse takes the stand on the first day of the defense case…

And during cross-examination, apparently a prosecutor went where the judge had warned him not to go…


Rittenhouse murder case thrown into jeopardy by mistrial bid
The murder case against Kyle Rittenhouse was thrown into jeopardy Wednesday when his lawyers asked for a mistrial over what appeared to be out-of-bounds questions asked of Rittenhouse by the chief prosecutor.

Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder did not immediately rule on the request but was clearly angry at the prosecution, telling Thomas Binger: “When you say that that you were acting in good faith, I don’t believe that.”

The judge has been a disgrace - not allowing the prosecution to do it's job by continually interfering. to aide Rittenhouse. Who by the way did a horrid acting job pretending to cry. Guess he is using the Rapeanaugh tactic "I like Guns" sobbing

Nice progressive echo job…

I know your profession, and it isn’t legal…

Do you know Wisconsin law that well to make that judgement, or are you just parroting MSDNC???

There is a saying that Dad used on us kids now and then. It is in Low German but in modern German it is stated like so: "alles in den füßen und nichts im kopf" and fits the progressive echo chamber to a T.

He's parroting msm nonsense. Prosecution was a joke, but hard to not be a joke when it's a cut and dry self defense given all the video evidence.

The people that attacked Rittenhouse was a convicted pedo, a convicted rapist, and a convicted thief. Unfortunately for society the thief lived to tell his tale...which ironically will help Rittenhouse's defense.

Keep defending sick fucks like this Jon, it really helps the progtards image.

This trial never should've gone forward with the murder charges. You have to think the prosecution had at some point talked to the people they were calling for witnesses and realized they would never be able to get around the self-defense claim of the defendant. Taking him to trial on something lesser like the gun charge would've been the reasonable approach, but we don't appear to have reasonableness in abundance these days. Going to be a lot of howling when the jury comes back quickly with the not-guilty verdicts on the murder charges, but like I said, those charges never should've been pursued.

I haven't watched much of the trial outside of a few clips and read some articles, but it seems to me that the prosecution is trying to get a mistrial so they can pass the blame instead having him declared not guilty on the murder charges.

Is there a difference between mistrial and not guilty as it pertains being able to prosecute later if additional evidence pops up?

My understanding is that the prosecution typically has the right to bring a second trial after a mistrial.

Maybe the prosecution wants a second chance to coach Grosskreutz and try and improve his testimony. Or maybe they use the mistrial to blame the judge to try and avoid responsibility for their inept prosecution.

That was a beatdown but at the start I wondered if the judge is doing his best Joe Biden impersonation where he's struggling to remember words and string together coherent thoughts.

If the judge was to grant the defense motion, which is for a mistrial with prejudice, then the prosecution cannot retry. That’s because the prosecution cannot “make a mistake” in an effort to get a mistrial to cure their own mistakes.

If the mistrial is granted, without the “with prejudice “ ruling, then the prosecution can retry.

With prejudice might be preferable to the prosecution. Better for them to blame the judge than have an acquittal.

Should have been charged as the terrorist he is.

Shows up heavily armed with a 30 round magazine to an event where violence is expected and engages in lethal violence - he's a willing combatant not in military uniform. He's a terrorist. :coffee:

The litte creep couldn't even manage tears during his dramatic performance for the jury. :ohno:

No doubt he has a bright future with a certain faction of our nation's LEOs.
