Is the judge going to let this go into tomorrow?

I hope not but I've been assuming that's the strategy. State trying to buy time to come up with new cross ideas overnight
The story isn't that [DeSantis] "couldn't win" the primary. The story is that an overwhelming majority of our population is heinously stupid. 50% of them vote for communists. 75% of the remaining 50% vote for Trump, who cant win. When the majority of the opposition party insists on voting for an opposition candidate who can't win, you get exactly the government you deserve. - Well Endowed Ag

Can a jury return a verdict for summary execution of the ADA?

Or are a jury's powers limited?

Some of the questions you all are asking maybe answered "yes" by one or more on that jury. All it takes is one hold out with bad logic and the prosecution gets another bite at the Apple.
Exactly. That was my point about the AR15.

Yes. And possibly provide any staunch non-acquitters ammunition to fight back with in deliberations.

DA ends after the cliffhanger on Kyle not remembering whether he looked at social media before turning himself in? I thought we had at least another hour.

Wow. Surprised he didn't keep going.

Never landed a knockdown blow.

Didn't really finished up with the zinger there. Didn't really get him to crack. I'm going to try to point out inconsistencies in closing. Does Wisconsin allow for a rebuttal case? Maybe they'll bring somebody in to contradict something he said. Overall didn't seem horribly damaging to his case, but I'm not sure how much it helped.

The "you had no business being there" argument is probably the strongest argument the prosecution has. And with the benefit of hindsight, would even Rittenhouse disagree?

Not that that argument invalidated his right to self-defense, but juries are made up of emotional people and maybe that argument will resonate.

Just a dumb, dumb, dumb decision to let him testify.

That might be the most painful and pointless cross-examination I have ever seen.

I thought he was going to drop some proof that he had looked.

good point on the stream...no redirect would preclude a re-cross correct?

5-10 minute potty break for defense attorney. Then the defense is calling another witness but not sure who.

Same here. My jaw actually dropped when Kyle hesitantly answered he did not know - and dropped even further when the DA said "no further questions."

I would bet the self-defense expert who can refute all of the points the ADA was making regarding the pointing of guns and who was the aggressor.

Earlier when the DA was grilling Kyle on why he had an AR to defend a structure when he knew he couldn't use deadly force to do so I was hoping Kyle would have said he and others were visibly armed as a deterrent but he didn't. Also when the DA asked Kyle why he had an AR when he was trying to render aid to the injured I was hoping Kyle would have said because he may have needed to defend himself from potential threats but he didn't.

Soooo. Binger passes the witness. If I'm Richards I do not conduct any redirect. That way Binger doesn't have the opportunity to regroup and recross him tomorrow.

I asked this earlier but didn't see an answer.

If he insisted on testifying could they really stop him?

Legal experts appear unanimous in criticizing defense for allowing KR to testify.


Seems to be making it obvious. There is no good coming from this for the defense. Why give this opportunity?
No idea. Appears to be a colossal mistake by the defense, based upon my intuition, not expertise.
