Kyle Rittenhouse Legal Proceedings - Come for the trial, stay for….

[Apterigo]

Its a blue state, everything is relative, including the legal system

Wisconsin isn't a blue state, it's purple. However, left or right, a shitload of people in Wisconsin own guns.

I've seen it said a couple times here but yeah Wisconsin isn't a blue state - here's the election results from 2020 split by county:

It's the New York problem where it's only the big cities like Milwaukee and Madison are blue.

This isn't even just lying under oath, this is lying really fucking badly under oath. Why the hell did he go with "I wanted to end things non-lethally" as opposed to literally any other excuse.

Yes, it is generally within the judge's power to dismiss a case upon a motion by the defense at the end of the state's case. The judge, after hearing all the evidence, can find that the state didn't meet its burden of proof. Any competent defense attorney will make such a motion in just about every criminal trial. Usually it gets denied because the state usually puts on at least a prima facie case (that is, there is enough evidence to meet the elements of the crime charged).

In this case, though... I think the judge will be sorely tempted. Seems to me that the state has brought out a lot of evidence that is 100% consistent with self-defense. Still, I would expect he will allow the case to go to the jury - that way he avoids any politically-motivated accusations and will let the jury make what should be an obvious decision.

Just to add, If you've been watching Rackets, he said on Friday something like, "I didn't think the judge would give a directed verdict after the first couple days, but now I do."

A directed verdict is the motion to dismiss before handing things off to the jury because no reasonable person would find for one side or the other.
