It is a gamble for the prosecution as well on cross examination. Judging from the kids performance on the night of the killings he handles pressure well and keeps his head. If the prosecution goes at him hard and he has been properly prepped it could go very well for him and badly for the prosecution.
Rittenhouse has a jury that came in disliking him almost as much as the Chauvin jury, which in my mind totally disregarded the medical evidence. I don’t think Rittenhouse will get an acquital so they need to make sure he at least gets a hung jury. He needs to convince at least one or two jurors he is not a monster. That is not a high bar.
How do you know this about the jury
I missed the voire speculations on this case.
