With setting of initial trial date and a pre-trial conference, prosecution ready to share its Discovery with defense counsel
On Tuesday, Kyle Rittenhouse appeared on a virtual ZOOM court appearance before Kenosha County Commissioner Loren Keating for his arraignment hearing.
Rittenhouse, through his attorney Mark Andrews, plead “not guilty” to all counts.
Per the tweet below, trial date and a pre-trial conference date set:
With jury selection set to begin on March 29, Defense Attorney Mark Andrews objected to the initial date, but the actual trial date could be pushed back.
The prosecution indicated during the hearing he was prepared to share all Discovery material.
Defense Discovery time limit will likely be determined after review of prosecution materials, and will be used for the March 10 pre-trial.
The Arraignment Hearing was concluded within 4 minutes.
John M. Pierce Interview with WGN Radio
Late this morning, Kyle Rittenhouse’s civil attorney, John M. Pierce, was interviewed by WGN Radio.
The audio-only interview is here:
The conversation lasts about 12 minutes, and is interesting.
Kyle Rittenhouse turned 18 Sunday
Last but not least, Kyle Rittenhouse turned 18 this past Sunday, so he is now a legal adult. He is being charged as an adult on the Kenosha County case.
Kid should get a medal.
DA needs to be fired.
To your station commentator.
As to the question as to whether Kyle’s being in Kenosha somehow makes him guilty I would suggest that he read a couple of old US Supreme Court Cases.
These cases make it clear that Kyle had every right to be there armed, even if it was or was not an exercise of good judgement.
Specifically: Gourko v. United States: which states: “Carrying a Gun is an Innocent Act.”; Thompson v. United States: “There is Nothing Wrong with Carrying a Rifle for Protection”; Brown v. United States: “Detached Reflection Cannot be Demanded in the Presence of an Uplifted Knife” (or other deadly weapon) Commentary and info on these cases and similar cases can be found at:

Yes indeed, The Terminater.
FREE KYLE!
Clearly, the guy who interviewed Kyle’s Attorney is a biased nut!
He has no ability to be objective and is clearly one sided.
Just more big steps to civil war.
When a good young man like Kyle is persecuted, it’s time to pull the plug on the persecutors.
More national guardsmen to Kenosha.
Give them shoot to kill orders for looters and arsonists.
Roger that Mike.
Getting ready to put the commies down for dirt naps.
FBI riddled with scum.
Remember there’s 15000 of them, tens of millions of us.
Release the flight logs to Epstein Island.
Hey, Justice Roberts, what’s up with you? How many visits?
How many boys?
Who’s got the blackmail videos?
This kid shouldn’t have been where he was.
This case illustrates why we shouldn’t have vigilanties running around with guns.
We have trained police and national guard for a reason.
I agree with above text.
Kyle brought an automatic firearm to a place of trouble adding to the explosive mix.
We need to be calm not be vigilantees.
Everyone needs to take a deep breath and put the firearms down.
3 people are dead because of that irresponsible brat.
Because? You just outed yourself as a complete moron. Three lies. Three strikes. You’re out! (I see what you did there with your illuminati Freemason signaling number!)
Yep!
BecauseScience demonstrates his morbid stupidity once again!
Good call Cindy!
Semper, you got Roberts right!
