The jury in Kyle Rittenhouse's murder trial has finished its second full day of deliberations without reaching a verdict. Rittenhouse, 18, is accused in the slayings of two men during tumultuous protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin, targeting racial injustice.
did not immediately rule on the request, the second mistrial motion from the defense in a week. The jury deliberated a second full day without reaching a verdict and will return in the morning.
He said that the defense would have approached things differently if it had received the better footage earlier and that it is now asking for “a level, fair playing field.” He shot and killed Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Anthony Huber, 26, and wounded Gaige Grosskreutz, now 28. Rittenhouse is white, as were those shot. The case has become a flashpoint in the debate over guns,He could get life in prison if convicted of the most serious charge against him.
The prosecution contends the video proves Rittenhouse lied on the stand when he said he didn’t point his rifle at protesters. But the key moment in the video is hard to decipher because of how far away the drone was and how small a figure Rittenhouse is in the frame. But if it turns out the video should not have been admitted into evidence, “it’s going to be ugly,” Schroeder warned.If Rittenhouse is acquitted, the issue will be moot. But if he is found guilty, a mistrial ruling would essentially void the verdict.
“You can’t just say, ‘The state gave me a lower-quality video and therefore I get a mistrial,’” Meyn said. “That’s a losing argument for sure.”
