Time to add "Aaron Rodgers" to the ol' muted words list — PolitiTweet.org

Lackowski insists that he never felt threatened by Joseph Rosenbaum, the first man that Rittenhouse shot. The defense has tried to emphasize throughout this trial that Rosenbaum's behavior was erratic and physically hostile that night. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Defense lawyer, Chirafisi, is now questioning Lackowski. Lackowski says that Rittenhouse was out helping people that night and that he didn't see Rittenhouse acting aggressively toward anyone. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Lackowski saw Gaige Grosskreutz, the third man Rittenhouse shot -- Grosskreutz was screaming on the ground, asking for a tourniquet. Lackowski helped apply the tourniquet and waited with Grosskreutz until police arrived. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
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

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

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

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
