Lackowski is recalling that in the immediate, chaotic aftermath of the Rittenhouse shootings, he encountered Rittenhouse -- who told Lackowski that he did not shoot anybody and that he needed help. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Lackowski, who has a serious, unsmiling expression and speaks in a clipped cadence, refers to certain people in downtown Kenosha that night as "a-holes," which prompts a rebuke from Judge Schroeder. "You're in court," the judge says. Lackowski apologizes. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Mr. Lackowski's mission the night of the Rittenhouse shooting was to guard property -- and his strategy was to "shout, shove, show, shoot," he testifies. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
On to the first witness, Jason Lackowski, a Wisconsin resident and former Marine who came to Kenosha in Aug. 2020 to "protect local property." He brought an AR-15, he says, and met up with other men who had appointed themselves the same mission. — PolitiTweet.org

Day 5 of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial in Kenosha. The judge begins the day by dismissing Juror 27, a woman who has requested to be excused for a medical reason related to her pregnancy. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @tariro: The trial of the white men accused of killing Ahmaud Arbery starts today. The fact that the jury is composed of 11 white peopleā¦ — PolitiTweet.org

Takeaways from the fourth day of the Rittenhouse trial in Kenosha, including the moment when the judge dismissed a juror. reporting w/@dhinkel https://t.co/dDN9edhxkF — PolitiTweet.org

Another graphic moment in the Rittenhouse trial, as a video of a wounded Joseph Rosenbaum, struggling to breathe, is played while Richie McGinniss testifies. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
McGinniss is recalling the events of Aug. 25, when he interviewed Kyle Rittenhouse on camera as Rittenhouse told him he was stationed downtown to protect a business and offer medical attention. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
The state is now calling Richie McGinniss, the Daily Caller videographer who witnessed the Rosenbaum shooting and immediately rendered first aid to Rosenbaum. — PolitiTweet.org

Julie Bosman @juliebosman
In a trial that has been very heavy on video so far, the prosecutor is again showing more graphic clips to the jury: of a bleeding Joseph Rosenbaum lying on the pavement in the moments after he was shot four times by Rittenhouse. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
The prosecutor is emphasizing a familiar point here: that Rosenbaum appeared to be holding only a plastic bag at the time he was chasing Rittenhouse, and was not armed with any weapons. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Detective Howard says that it appears Rosenbaum obtained the chain somewhere in the vicinity of St. James, a Catholic church on Sheridan Road near the spot where the shootings occurred -- but that he did not have the chain at the time he was killed. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
ADA Binger is asking the detective when Joseph Rosenbaum, the first man who was shot, when he possessed a chain, which was visible on video. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Court has resumed with the testimony of Detective Martin Howard of the Kenosha Police Department. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Binger, the prosecutor, said in court that his understanding is that the juror's joke ran something along the lines of: "Why did the Kenosha police shoot Jacob Blake seven times? Because they ran out of bullets." — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
"It was really bad judgment to tell a joke of that nature," the judge tells the juror, and thanks him for his service. He is excused. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
The judge is asking if Juror 7 told a joke about the Blake shooting, and he acknowledges that he did. The judge tells the juror that he is dismissed from the trial, and the juror says that his joke "had nothing to do with the case." — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Day 4 of the Rittenhouse trial begins with a discussion of a juror, who prosecutors say told a "joke" to sheriff's deputy about the shooting of Jacob Blake. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
ADA Binger asks the witness, a police detective, if there is any sign that Joseph Rosenbaum was carrying a weapon: a gun, a knife, a bat, a club? "I can only see a plastic bag," he says. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
More video from the immediate aftermath of the Rittenhouse shootings, when the scene erupted into screams and panic, as some people loaded Rosenbaum into a car for the hospital across the street, and others tried to tackle Rittenhouse as he fled down Sheridan Road. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
The jury is now watching shaky videos of the moments when Rittenhouse shot Gaige Grosskreutz, who was wounded in his arm, and Anthony Huber, who was killed. The videos are well known to anyone who has followed the case closely, but could be new to this jury. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
The prosecutor has shown a lot of video footage -- some very graphic -- of the night of the Rittenhouse shootings this afternoon, with few questions for the witness, a Kenosha police detective. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Another juror, an older man with glasses pushed on top of his head, looks pained and upset as he is watching the video of Rosenbaum mortally wounded. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
The prosecutor in the Rittenhouse trial is playing cellphone video of the moments just after Joseph Rosenbaum was shot, as he lay dying on the pavement. One juror put her hand in front of her nose and mouth as she watched. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
The defense is objecting to a livestream video from Aug. 25 played by the prosecution -- because the narrator of the video is heard commenting on the scene, including using the word "militia" to refer to armed men there. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
"I want the case to be fairly tried," Judge Schroeder tells the prosecutor. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
A frequent refrain from the Rittenhouse trial: Judge Schroeder criticizes media coverage as he and the lawyers argue over a legal issue. Wendy Rittenhouse, Kyle Rittenhouse's mother, leaves the courtroom while the discussion continues. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Wisconsin news colliding: before Rittenhouse trial returned from a break just now, sheriff's deputies in the courtroom were deep in conversation about the disaster of Aaron Rodgers' positive Covid test — PolitiTweet.org
