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

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

"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

Mark Richards has begun his opening statement. This isn't a whodunit, Richards says; this is a question of whether Rittenhouse's actions were privileged under the law of self-defense. — PolitiTweet.org

As Mark Richards, a defense lawyer, prepares to make his opening statement, ADA Binger objects to Richards' stated plan to introduce videos and photos to the jury during his statement. — PolitiTweet.org

Binger's opening statement is finished and the court will take a 10-minute break. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
"You will get the full story in the courtroom," Binger tells the jury. "We will show you as much as we can about the events of that night." — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Rosenbaum was shot four times, Binger says, and the fatal shot hit him in the back. After that shooting, Rittenhouse flees and is chased by other people. "They clearly believe he’s an active shooter and they try to stop him," Binger says. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Binger methodically describes the events of Aug. 25, 2020, as Rittenhouse joined a group including protesters in downtown Kenosha, and his encounter with Joseph Rosenbaum, who was the first person he shot. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
ADA Thomas Binger has begun his opening statement. He talks about the protests and destruction in Kenosha in Aug. 2020. "Hundreds of people were on the street experiencing chaos and violence, and the only person who killed anyone was Kyle Rittenhouse," he says. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
"Examine the evidence and search for the truth," Judge Schroeder says, wrapping up his instructions. Prosecution opening statement is next. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Judge Bruce Schroeder is reading instructions to the jury on self-defense. Rittenhouse, seated next to his lawyers, is watching the judge closely and occasionally yawning. — PolitiTweet.org

A reflection of the enormous attention on the Rittenhouse case in Kenosha: More jurors are dismissed because they say their views on this case are too strongly held. “My opinion is set in stone on this,” one man said. — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Judge Schroeder addresses a juror who says he can't be fair because he believes in the 2nd Amendment. "I want this case to reflect the greatness of Kenosha and the fairness of Kenosha," the judge says. "I don’t care about your opinions on the Second Amendment." — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
He is also talking to potential jurors about the First Amendment, judicial bias, the history of democracy and the fall of Rome — PolitiTweet.org
Julie Bosman @juliebosman
Judge Schroeder, who is presiding over the Rittenhouse case, is telling potential jurors that they must disregard media coverage of the trial -- often sloppy and biased -- and pay attention to what they will hear in the courtroom. — PolitiTweet.org
