WATCH: Judge Dismisses Weapons Charge Against Kyle Rittenhouse
Breitbart ^ | 11-15-21 | AWR HAWKINS and JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 11/15/2021 8:14:46 AM PST by AAABEST

Judge Bruce Schroeder ruled in favor of the defense’s request to have a firearms charge against Kyle Rittenhouse dismissed in Kenosha County Court on Monday morning.

On Friday, as Breitbart News reported, Judge Scroeder appeared skeptical of the weapons charge, saying that the Wisconsin statue was unclear about exceptions for those over 16 years old but under 18 years old if the gun were a long-barreled rifle.

However, the judge did not throw out the charge, partly because he could not remember whether the length of the rifle Rittenhouse used had been introduced into evidence.

On Monday, as lawyers for the prosecution and the defense argued over the final draft of the jury instructions, the defense again raised the issue of the weapons charge, noting that the gun had been measured in court and that the police detective on the witness stand had confirmed that it was not short-barreled.

Good...I really like this kid. He recognizes the kid for what he believes in. I bet Kyle’s next step is to join the Marines.

This is a very big deal.

Otherwise Kyle's claims to Self-Defense could easily have been undermined.

“It’s a good start.”

The prosecutor knew it was a bogus charge.

Not to hijack my own thread, but does anyone have the video of Grosskreuse’s bicep exploding?

I saw it everywhere when it first happened but the google-gods have sent it down the memory hole. Cannot find it.

It’s a GREAT video.

The prosecution overcharged, which allowed for a false media narrative. Kyle NEVER possessed an illegal firearm and he was lawfully allowed to be in Kenosha.

If he goes to prison for any length of time, unless in solitary, he will not come out alive.

He needs to be set free and the fool in the White House impeached for asking for him to be convicted.

But this is the only one the prosecutor acknowledged.

Yes, his father lives in Kenosha, where the firearm was kept.

It took s lot of words and time to rule.

The only potential issue left is did Kyle “provoke” the crowd. It seems like a bogus claim.

And in any subsequent rioting over an acquittal, real measures need to be employed to end said rioting.
