What to Know: Many in the U.S. were truly surprised at the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict of “not guilty,” largely because of the media narratives, which backed the prosecutors.

The TPPF Take: The Rittenhouse case is a cautionary tale for conservative legislatures.

“Thousands of cases a day go through our nation’s court systems, but most do not grab the headlines or scrutiny of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial,” says TPPF’s Brett Tolman. “The power and prejudice this prosecution wielded should worry anyone who advocates for the fair administration of the rule of law. Let’s be grateful for a judge willing to safeguard justice from abuse of power or bias. Americans must demand that more judges have the ability to check that power.”
