Then he tried to sneak evidence in, again in front of the jury, that the judge had already said he was leaning towards not allowing, then he brought in drone footage from a hundred feet away that doesn't really show anything but he basically says to the jury: see this one little tiny pixel here? Trust us, that's totally Rittenhouse pointing his gun at Rosenbaum first.
And that's shit he did in court in front of a live video feed. Now there's talk about him not sharing video evidence with the defense that he is required to do.
The fat guy wasn't too bad, he just lied a lot, but he's a lawyer. It's the other guy that is shady and I'm willing to bet within the next 2 or 3 years he will be announcing his run for a political office and he'll be using this trial in his campaign ads.
I can see the bullshit already: "I took on white supremacists in court and the justice system failed. Elect me and I'll make sure this never happens again."
I doubt that. Even the people I know that hate Rittenhouse think he is a shit prosecutor.
