The Kyle Rittenhouse trial in Kenosha
-
-
The prosecutor is playing to leftist pop culture, and probably has political aspirations.
What are the chances that a "diverse" judge, one who wants everybody to know that their perspective is super important and that's what makes them a good judge, would have this same reaction against this flouting of the law by the prosecution?

Rittenhouse is being cross-examined at the moment.
I don't know what the rules are in Wisconsin, but I know a bit about Illinois.
In cross-examination, the questioner is not allowed to ask anything that the original questioner touched upon.
For example, under direct examination imagine the following sequence:
Counsel asks witness under direct examination: "Did you see Mr. Jones steal the purse?"
Under cross, the opposing counsel asks: "Mr. Jones also stole an automobile, is that correct?"
Counsel: "Objection, your honor!"
Judge: "Sustained."

It would shock me if he was convicted of anything but the misdemeanor.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

The DA is making a case that there was no imminent threat to Rittenhouse's life when he fired his rifle.
A lot about "what the hell were you doing there anyway?"

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

The first shooting was the guy that grabbed his rifle, no?

I believe so.
But, according to the DA, that was not an imminent threat.

It was also the guy that twice threatened to kill him?

DA doesn't stand for Dumb Ass, does it?

That would apply to the first degree murder charge, since the DA must prove intent.
-
One of the things that the DA tried to introduce into evidence was a photo of Rittenhouse at a bar in Wisconsin, with his friends.
He was wearing a sweatshirt that said, "Free as Fuck!"
Judge denied it, saying that what Rittenhouse did FOUR MONTHS AFTER the incident is irrelevant.

There seems to be some thought that the prosecution is purposefully shooting for a mistrial?

There is no way that's not happening.

The exception still applies. Transporting across state lines is a problem. Justice could charge him under Federal law, but if they do this after an acquittal, it would certainly have political fallout.
Of course they should prosecute him on the transport charge, and his mother too for driving him, if the law allows it. That crime ultimately resulted in two deaths. If you didn’t charge it in this case, when would you?
(Assuming they can show the gun was transported from IL, last I recall that was in question but I haven’t followed this at all or read anything about it since last year)
DON’T let them eat cake.
