I've been watching the whole thing through. This is a miscarriage of the law in the highest order.
The prosecution are gaslighting the judge, and the defense are letting them.
Kyle's defense has basically abandoned him and wouldn't even object to the prosecution coming out and saying the sky is green and that's why Kyle Rittenhouse shot 90 black men in cold blood while blasting "let the bodies hit the floor."
The judge has numerous times said in statement things completely favorable to Rittenhouse and has even yelled at the prosecution for their bullshit and then immediately rules against HIS OWN LOGIC!
AND THE DEFENSE JUST LETS HIM!
Things are going very bad for Kyle, and I'm not overstating it.
It was the defense's case to lose, and they seem content with losing to the fantasy presented by the prosecution.
The largest affront to reality is how the prosecution is claiming Kyle provoked Rosenbaum by pointing his gun at Ziminski, which Rosenbaum didn't know nor has it been proven he realized that had happened.
They are creating this fantasy because they have drone footage that came in only last Friday that they have blown up and is so blurry it makes Kyle look left handed, but somehow that's good enough to show Kyle pointed his gun at Ziminski.
No one in their right mind could look at a video where Kyle is less than 10 pixels and decide he held his gun up for a fraction of a second, but that's where we are. The prosecution basically convinced the judge that a shit stain on some paper towel shows that it will rain tomorrow, and the defense just lets them do it.
This is a travesty, and it opens up the prosecution to gaslight the jury like they have gaslit the judge.
In a world that makes sense, this case would have been dismissed on day two.
The world doesn't make sense, though.
I agree. It doesn’t make sense today that Kyle’s defense isn’t standing on a “mistrial with prejudice”. The judge offered it as repercussions to the prosecution’s behavior and the defense should stand hard on it, and not continue this crap! Unfortunately the threats of BLM/ANTIFA rioting there I’m afraid has leaked in. Kyle should not have to be made the scapegoat for outside influences that OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT should make clear they can and will handle if Kyle’s case is dismissed! But the media is already seasoning his goose with their agenda control! It’s BS all the way around today.
