He was seen carrying what looked like a kind of clear plastic bag throughout the evening. So in theory, Joseph Rosenbaum would have been a pretty challenging element for the defense lawyers.

The evidence in this case will show that on the night of Augjulie bosman Where should we start? archived recording (judge schroeder)Īll right, let’s proceed with the state’s case. So we want to talk to you about the key moments in this trial that explain why that was - why this trial ended up being such a complete victory for Rittenhouse. And given that Rittenhouse was found not guilty on every single count, clearly the prosecution didn’t accomplish that. Right, but there was uncertainty about exactly how the trial would unfold, about just how sympathetic the jury would be to Rittenhouse and to his argument of self-defense, and whether the prosecution could show that Rittenhouse shouldn’t have feared for his life. And that was, under Wisconsin State law, the question of self-defense.ĭid Kyle Rittenhouse act in self-defense when he shot and killed two people and wounded another?

So I think for a lot of people, this case has been about a lot of different things. So just remind us why that was the thinking.
