...how and why did his lawyers let him be interviewed by The Washington Post and admit to a straw purchase taking place?

2020-11-19 18:51:39 UTC  

Because they are incompetent.

2020-11-19 18:51:47 UTC  

(to be fair I haven't read the article or seen the interview)

2020-11-19 18:52:19 UTC  

In my queue.

2020-11-19 20:30:07 UTC  

<mean words about his lawyers>

2020-11-19 21:10:15 UTC  

ok lets say there is a straw purchase what if anything dose that have to do with his case. I look at this as two different cases altogether and try n to tie them two together would be a waist of time. Or possibly defense wants this info for some weird double jeopardy thing down the road if they win the trial case.

2020-11-19 21:41:57 UTC  

So hypothetical question about this case...if there was no video for this case how close would the rest evidence be to showing what happened (with video) Also would this case have completely different out come (no video)

2020-11-19 21:41:57 UTC  

@osok, you just advanced to level 3!

2020-11-19 23:10:13 UTC  

We wouldn't be able to speculate with any accuracy. Keep in mind, however, the lack of evidence favors defendants, but witness testimony also could be extremely biased for obvious reasons.

2020-11-19 23:12:27 UTC  

With the absence of evidence, it would be a tossup between playing witnesses to the jury. I'm no legal expert though.

2020-11-19 23:13:12 UTC  

Generally speaking, absence of evidence is favorable to defendants, but it's not a rule and it comes with a ton of caveats and nuance.

2020-11-19 23:13:37 UTC  

It's too easy to wrongly convict people in the existing system.

2020-11-19 23:16:42 UTC  

In this case, however, he opened fire on a left leaning crowd, the ones famous for shouting ACAB and then desperatly calling 911 to scream for help followed by a lawsuit where they sue the police for bigotry.

2020-11-19 23:17:00 UTC  

Im pretty sure if there was no video, commies would have done what they do best. Coordination of lies.

2020-11-19 23:19:13 UTC  

Needless to say, I wouldn't envy any Criminal Defense lawyer representing Rittenhouse if there were not documented video evidence.

2020-11-19 23:19:29 UTC  

Because they'd have their work cut out for them.

2020-11-19 23:19:33 UTC  

Oh, I disagree. Losing battles are the most glorious.

2020-11-19 23:20:08 UTC  

Remember David Crockett and Wallace Hartley?

2020-11-19 23:20:16 UTC  

Keep in mind, you're talking about a 17 year old seeing the rest of his life behind bars if convicted.

2020-11-19 23:20:23 UTC  

oh, indeed.

2020-11-19 23:20:33 UTC  

But he did try to assist criminals, you know.

2020-11-19 23:20:56 UTC  

And yes, I made much worse decisions at 17.

2020-11-19 23:21:10 UTC  

So did many of us probably.

2020-11-19 23:22:11 UTC  

But to bring it back onto the case; he fired in self defense only. That is a very American right. A coordinated lie would change that in absence of video-evidence.

2020-11-19 23:22:20 UTC  

So he caught a break on that one.

2020-11-19 23:57:23 UTC  

need to get a gun cam

2020-11-20 00:07:10 UTC  

I dont like things that runs on batteries, but, yeah. I want one of those FLIR ones with a memory stick. (for different purposes)

2020-11-20 01:44:01 UTC  

Lol ominous

2020-11-20 01:46:06 UTC  

Come on! Dont make me look bad! Im a competing sports shooter, you donkey.

2020-11-20 01:47:26 UTC  

Reap-IR for target practice.

2020-11-20 01:47:29 UTC  

That's... uh.

2020-11-20 01:47:31 UTC  

A new concept.

2020-11-20 01:59:13 UTC  

..and a hunter...

2020-11-20 09:45:42 UTC  

👍

2020-11-20 16:01:29 UTC  

I have a question. How Does L Lin wood's issues involving his ex employees/partners stand to effect his license?

2020-11-20 16:55:56 UTC  

Well when lawyers do something wrong, they tend to end up being sanctioned, as for that particular example, he probably won't just lose his license if this is the only thing he's had filed against him.

2020-11-20 16:56:23 UTC  

@RobertGrulerEsq Would know more about sanctions.

2020-11-20 16:56:38 UTC  

They usually have a form of strike system.

2020-11-20 16:56:43 UTC  

Unless it's bad enough.
