……but played the good quality video on the last day of trial. I have not seen it, but apparently it shows Rittenhouse pointing the rifle at the people in the crowd who later came after him which would mean that he lied In the trial, and that he had a role in inciting violence. Defense lawyers are now asking for a mistrial.
This does not change the fact that Rittenhouse later acted in self defense, but it does open up the potential for other charges, and certainly for a civil case.
What happened is what happened, so I am glad the video has come out, but I hope the prosecutors are disbarred after all of 5eir shenanigans. But we all know how rare it is for lawyers to police themselves meaningfully.
