BREAKING: Rittenhouse Defense Team Files Motion That Prosecutors in Kenosha Withheld Video Evidence
Defense attorney Mark Richards said, ‘I don’t know what exhibits the jurors wish to see we have a real problem with them seeing the drone footage.
‘We have a motion pending based upon disclosure. If they want to see that, that’s just tainting the jury further.’
- The jury in the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse asked if it must return to the courtroom to watch video footage or if they can do that in private
- Both Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger and defense lead Mark Richards agreed that they should return to the courtroom
- Judge Bruce Schroeder said Wednesday that he ‘hasn’t even had a chance to read the motion to dismiss’ filed by the defense yesterday
- DaiyMail.com revealed Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger initially shared low quality drone footage from the night of the shooting with the defense
- The defense claims Binger only shared the high-definition footage after evidence had closed on Saturday
- According to a motion filed today by the defense, ‘The problem is the prosecution gave the defense a compressed version of the video’
- The jury began deliberations Tuesday and are now in its second day

Ms. Wisco says there is a major difference in the meta data of the videos. @Timcast has been saying all day the problem is not just that a video was withheld, but that the state provided an "altered" video to the #Rittenhouse defense. @barnes_law https://t.co/N6Y7KxrKov

Defense: This video was the ONLY piece of evidence that was not sent via Dropbox

Ms. Wisco for the defense responds. She says every piece of evidence–expect for the HD drone video–was provided to the defense via Drop Box. Ms. Wisco says Drop Box allows for the full file to be downloaded. https://t.co/WTb6Hobyjt

That's not how that's supposed to work
That's not how any of this works

The prosecution withheld evidence, and it seems clear they did it on purpose.
This trial should be over, mistrial with prejudice, and the prosecutor sanctioned and investigated.
— Blake Masters (@bgmasters) November 17, 2021
Yesterday the defense filed a motion for mistrial with prejudice based in part on the fact that the prosecution did not share high-definition drone footage with the defense until after the trial part of proceedings had concluded, and evidence closed.
Today defense attorney Mark Richards said, ‘I don’t know what exhibits the jurors wish to see we have a real problem with them seeing the drone footage.
‘We have a motion pending based upon disclosure. If they want to see that, that’s just tainting the jury further.’
As revealed by DailyMail.com the state only provided a full-size file of the footage in question on Saturday November 13, two days ahead of closing.
Richards’ objection sparked the judge to respond to comments that he claimed he had seen in the media from experts expressing surprise that he had not ruled on the defense’s motion for a mistrial.
He said, ‘I haven’t even had a chance to read the motion to dismiss. I just got it yesterday and I really think that before reading I should let the state respond.’
He said that motions should be ‘taken under advisement’ unless they were ‘crystal clear.’
Warming to his theme Judge Schroeder continued, ‘It’s a shame that irresponsible statements are being made. As long as I’m talking about it [let’s talk about] the business of people not being identified as ‘victims.’
Judge Schroeder’s ruling that the men shot by Rittenhouse could not be described as ‘victims’ caused a great deal of backlash for the judge.
DailyMail.com revealed that there was a huge swell in the hate mail he has received as a result.
Today he said, ‘How would you like to be put on trial for a crime and the judge introduced the case to the jury by introducing you as the defendant and the person who’s accusing you as the victim?
‘Is it so difficult to use the term ‘complaining witness’?’
