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

[Random Internet Person]

I feel if he gets any kind of bs appeasement conviction now it'll be the reckless endangerment of McGinnis.

Wouldn’t that still lead to a long time in prison where leftists can claim victory?

 

[Mike Stoklasas Spock Ears]

if they were leaning more towards conviction, i suspect the vibe in the courtroom would be like to kill a mockingbird where the jury refuses to look at tom robinson. but when the jury was in there, kyle seemed much more relaxed than he has been.

IMO, if they found him guilty on any of the Rosenbaum stuff, the rest would have followed quickly after, given my understanding of things. This delay means they can't decide on Rosenbaum, or have(not guilty) but someone wants something to nail Kyle on.

 

[Mr Bunny]

Mmmh...my gut tells me that is right. Even if they go with selfdefence, that does not negate the endangerment, but Im not sure about what happened with the Mcinnes fellow.

It does negate it, firing a gun with your attacker on the barrel of your gun. It would be unreasonable to hold someone's account for not taking in another person's supposed health and safety, as self-defense is normally used when you reasonably believe that you're under threat from death or great bodily harm.

Either way, if it was full acquittal or full guilty, it'd have occurred by now. The question then is, which side has the majority and could -possibly- browbeat the other side into submission?

 

[Feline Supremacist]

Same thing in this case.

He probably does need to be punished for being stupid.

Being naive is not being stupid. He really thought there were reasonable people protesting, and prior to Orange Man Bad time it was true but the DNC and their ChiCom buddies decided giving commies full reign was the way to go. He knows better now, most people do.

A potential employer picked a hell of a time to schedule my job interview. Now I can call of work and not have to be in a major city tomorrow.

I hope tomorrow the guilty jurors will be given 8-hours of swirlies

I'd be extremely pissed for wasting my time and trying to convict someone I thought was innocent.

The problem here is that the longer this goes on, the more time that the jury intimidation tactics have to bear fruit.

 

[Gehenna]

If a juror admits to outside influence, that is "Good Cause" under any reading and thus sufficient grounds to be removed. Of course, we have no solid evidence of this.

If it's what I think it is, they'll likely capitulate if anyone gets even close to naming them.

No. At this point, every juror knows the possibility. This is all confirmation the pressure started too late, and so a sizeable faction became more obstinate.

 

[Meat Target]

Did they adjourn for the day?

This is the most tired I've ever been after spending all day doing nothing but shitposting.

Yeah I don't really believe that shit, pretty sure no one would be allowed to reveal that kind of info to the public. I don't doubt most of them know there's a threat but I doubt any of openly admitted it.

To be a fly on the wall, I do wonder why the defence is all smilies tho

Yes.

It could be as simple as "may as well laugh as cry".

They apparently went into a room and spoke to the judge.
