Andrea Widburg "On Tuesday, the Kyle Rittenhouse prosecution rested its case after its witnesses once again strongly supported Kyle's assertion that he only acted in self-defense. In a righteous world, the judge would, on his own initiative, order a directed verdict in Kyle's favor. Instead, it emerged that there's a plan to terrorize the jurors (and, by implication, the judge). Also the mainstream media, of course, pretended the prosecution had actually proved its case.
"Once again, I've turned to Andrew Branca's excellent post summarizing what happened at the trial, and, again, I'm just skimming the surface of his analysis. To orient those of you who haven't been following this, Kyle Rittenhouse borrowed a rifle, gathered his medical kit, and headed to Kenosha in the wake of the Jacob Blake riots. His goal was to help clean up the damage, offer first aid, and protect businesses from being destroyed. Instead, he shot three White communist felons, two of whom died. Video footage supported the claim of self-defense, and, as the six days of trial have shown, witness testimony did, too.
"The prosecution put on two final witnesses before resting its case: James Armstrong, an imaging expert witness, and Doug Kelley, M.D., who performed autopsies on the two men Kyle killed. Armstrong was a substantively useless witness, while Kelley's evidence affirmatively helped the defense. I'll ignore Armstrong and focus on Kelley.
"One of the things Kelley testified about was whether the decedents were near or far from Kyle when he shot them. If they were within inches of the gun, there'd be soot around the wounds; if they were within four feet of the gun, there'd be gunpowder stippling; and if they were farther away, all those marks would be missing." . . .
