Respond to of 1576600 Why is Kyle Rittenhouse in jail and not out on bail? Nelson McKeeby Former Deputy Sheriff at South Carolina (state) (1999–2004) Mr. Rittenhouse has a very hard case against him. First, his attorney has stated publicly that his main defense will be the second amendment that, as a member of the undesignated militia acting with the approval and certification of local authorities, he had sovereign immunity when he took the actions he did. This is a political defense rather than one which will prevail in court. The error of the defense attorney is in trying to apply Westfall (which regards torts) to a criminal case, which wont last ten seconds in a court, and in trying to build a novel immunity for militia who commit crimes. Second, the evidence to prove the case is overwhelming. People who watched the Russian produced video and never read any of the associated information may not realize that the Kenosha County prosecutors did not in any way want to charge Rittenhouse because the whole snake pit puts Kenosha police in an incredibly bad situation regarding their role in the shootings. However, the case was immediately strong for an intentional homicide charge. Multiple witnesses state that he brandished his weapon several times that night, a reporter said he was incautious about who he pointed the weapon at, the militia had assigned a minder to him to protect him after his first few times of threatening with a firearm, and despite being equipped with a medical kit he allowed his victims to bleed out and even forced help to stay away from them during the crucial minutes they might have been saved, showing depraved indifference. When numerous anti-government white power groups offered to come to his aid and help him escape justice, the judge ordered that his bail be provided by the family through tangible assets, which means $200,000 of cash on a million dollar bond. Far as I understand, the kid has asked for bail help and bonded bail providers will not touch his case. Just to cut off the “I am going to kill all your kids because there is video that proves Rittenhouse is innocent” crowd, first I have no kids, second evidence does not have to exist in video from. The eye witness testimony of a journalist said that Rittenhouse was pointing the gun at people and incautious even at the best of times. Carry a gun and you need to not threaten people with it. The earliest video that exist is from the reporter when a crowd recognizes Rittenhouse as a guy who was threatening them earlier in the night. The militia assigned a person to protect Kyle because he was repeatedly threatening people with the rifle and wanted to provide firepower - he did try to distract the crowd he fired his pistol in the air, but may have also startled Rittenhouse into shooting. ..... Bryan Borich Kyle was previously convicted of publicly firing a weapon in public. Along with minor drug charges.
