VIDEO: Defense Says Kyle Rittenhouse Had The Right To 'Be Unmolested By The Likes Of' Convicted Pedophile Joseph Rosenbaum
During the defense team’s closing arguments in the Kyle Rittenhouse homicide trial, defense lawyer Mark Richards noted that the teenage defendant had “as much right to go there as anybody else in the city of Kenosha, and be unmolested by the likes of” convicted child rapist Joseph Rosenbaum, who was the first rioter to attack Rittenhouse after screaming “Shoot me, n***a.”
“He has as much right to go there as anybody else in the city of Kenosha, and be unmolested by the likes of Joseph Rosenbaum,” Richards said, pausing to let his choice of words sink in before adding the names of rioters Kelly and Joshua Ziminski.
