The prosecutor just asked him if he was inspired by “first person shooter videogames” where “the objective is to kill as many people as possible”

He’s 100% getting away with it.

EDIT: his testimony continues, new link here: https://youtu.be/YfrUopNUSIk

EDIT 2: The judge just denied the admission of a key prosecution video exhibit because "pinching and zooming on an ipad inserts extra pixels" and he won't allow the exhibit unless the prosecution can find an expert witness to testify that it won't corrupt the image. He's given him 20 minutes to find such a witness

    Holy shit, the judge just WENT OFF on the prosecutor for trying to bring up the fact that Rittenhouse previously expressed his wishes to murder people for shoplifting.

    The judge is obviously doing everything he can to ensure KR gets off, but at the same time wow this prosecutor seems like a born loser. Who also seems to be grandstanding to maybe kickstart his own political career?

    What a disaster.
