Yes. Unless the case is declared a mistrial with prejudice. Then that door closes as mentioned by defense counsel.

Damn, the straw purchase line of discussion was sketchy ground.

Could he be trying to get a mistrial? If there is a mistrial can they change their mind about having Kyle testify at the new trial? Maybe it's a ploy to get time between now and then to prepare for Kyle testifying.

Judge is tearing Prosecutor Binger a new asshole right now.

Reeks of desperation on the prosecution's part. They are trying to bait Rittenhouse into appearing bloodthirsty and immature.

"don't get brazen w me!" judge to binger

"every one of the incidents involved seconds of time" judge

The judge, taking the prosecuting attorney to school after annoying him for the second time: "I don't wanna have another issue." I think that's code for "Three strikes and you're out."

the guy asking about the driver's license - is that the prosecution?

This DA must be paid by the word.

Yes.

It is obvious this judge has a low opinion of this prosecutpr.

Damn....the judge is pissed

Maybe one of our Lawyers with trial experience can explain WTF the prosecutor is trying to accomplish?

To this layman he is just showing his ass, the jury has to know the judge is reaming this asshole out

He's trying to trip up Rittenhouse and catch him providing conflicting testimony (ie, lying on the stand)

One of the big reason you don't take the stand in your own defense

this prosecutor is infuriating

his stuff is going no where

kyle "you know more about it than i do" to prosecutor

Ok. Rittenhouse needs to just answer what is being asked. Not volunteer additional info

I would be tempted to correct the prosecutor’s language as he describes bullets, cartridges etc.

What a tool.

He has no clue of what he is yammering about.

This is the first day of the trial that I’ve watched live. Prior days I just watched some video and recounts of the day’s proceedings. I’ve seen recounts of the prosecutors’ attempt to make their case—-and not very well. I know there have been witnesses called by the prosecution, whose testimony has instead aided defense.

The prosecutor appears inept. Again and again.

Ultimately, Rittenhouse was WAY overcharged in this trial, and the prosecuting attorneys are in a political trial in a criminal courtroom.

prosecutor seems to be building up to hollow points would have been "safer" to use in crowds ?

"the full metal jacket rounds are designed to go through a first object and continue to another"

What a putz

If Kyle gets out of this I think my advice to him would be to go down and join the branch of the service that could ship him out the soonest. Spend a couple years overseas and then re-evaluate.

His next step will be to file a number of civil suits given all the shit he's been through.

To which is doubtful he’d get a thing. His life is pretty much over no matter how this turns out.
