On Wednesday in Kenosha, Wisconsin, jurors began their second day of deliberations in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial. The jury deliberated all day Tuesday without reaching a decision, and they notified the court that they would return in the morning to complete their investigation.

In the August 2020 shootings in Kenosha that killed Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber and injured Gaige Grosskreutz after a tumultuous night of protests following the police death of Jacob Blake, Rittenhouse faces five felony counts.

Rittenhouse, then 17 years old, maintains he was acting in self-defense. He stated that he traveled to Kenosha equipped with an AR-15 like weapon to assist with the protection of local businesses and to offer first aid. Last week, he testified in his own defense, breaking down in tears when his lawyers questioned him about why he fatally shot Rosenbaum.

Rittenhouse told the court, "I didn't do anything illegal; I was protecting myself".


The prosecution, on the other hand, has presented Rittenhouse as the aggressor and shown video from the event in an attempt to establish that he was the one who instigated the assault. Prosecutors have the burden of proof in this case to show that the shooting was not justifiable.

During the two weeks of testimony, the jury heard from over 30 witnesses.

After a group of 18 jurors was reduced down to 12, deliberations began Tuesday morning. Six pieces of paper from a lottery tumbler were chosen by Rittenhouse himself to designate the alternate jurors. A courtroom clerk, not the defendant, is normally in charge of this responsibility. Judge Bruce Schroeder stated that he has been requiring defendants to do so for "at least 20 years."

Jurors were chosen from a pool of seven women and five men, all of whom seemed to be white.

Opposing groups of demonstrators for and against a guilty conviction have gathered outside the Kenosha County courtroom, and 500 National Guard troops are on standby in anticipation of probable disturbance once a verdict is made.

What charges are already there?

Charge 1: For the death of Joseph Rosenbaum, first-degree reckless murder with the use of a deadly weapon.

Charge 2: Use of a hazardous weapon in the first degree recklessly endangering safety.

Charge 3: For the death of Anthony Huber, first-degree deliberate murder with the use of a deadly weapon.

Charge 4: For the shooting of Gaige Grosskreutz, attempted first-degree intentional murder with a dangerous weapon.

Charge 5: Use of a hazardous weapon in the first degree recklessly endangering safety.

Donald Trump due to the wave of immigrants coming across the Mexican border poisoned the United States

  Former US President Donald Trump said the United States was "poisoned" by the wave of migrants coming across the border, and called for the resumption of construction of the border wall with Mexico Our country is poisoned by the millions of people who illegally stream across our borders, and in most cases have not been questioned or stopped,” Trump said in a statement. "Many of those who streamed across the border are criminals from prisons that have been emptied in other countries, and most of them are very dangerous people," he said. And he added, "Our country is dying from within, and no one is doing anything to help it. The first thing that must be done quickly is to complete the wall." An agreement must be made with Mexico so that it can act as a barrier over 2,000 miles, and not as a springboard for illegal immigrants," he said. Trump also raised concerns about moving Afghan allies to the United States after the Biden administration withdrew f...

Walmart warns its customers of potentially fatal products and calls on them to return them immediately

  Walmart stores have called on all of their customers not to use an aromatherapy spray product after finding a "rare and dangerous bacteria" that can cause a fatal condition, as investigators are looking into two deaths so far. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tested Walmart's essential oil-infused aromatherapy spray with gemstones and found Burkholderia pseudomallei bacteria, which can cause a potentially fatal condition called melasma. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the CDC is investigating four confirmed cases in Kansas, Minnesota, Texas and Georgia, along with two deaths, including the death of one child. The CDC did not confirm the source of the four infections, but indicated that there was a bottle of the same type of bacteria in the home of one of the deceased from melasma. The CDC advises consumers who use the aromatherapy spray to immediately stop using the product, place the bottle in clear reusable bags, place it in a c...
