    wonder if they're going to cross him with the fat prosecutor. He's much more of an a-hole but much less capable than the other guy. Their only hope is to get him to crack under the pressure and lie.

    well, his D atty is asking a lot of questions, to which any he answers he is open to cross.
    He already referred to the rifle as 'his' rifle which kinda screws him on the gun charge.

    That's the one charge that has any likelihood of sticking. Illegal posession of a firearm. He is also open to fed charges (as is his former buddy Jacob Black) for straw purchase. No idea what the FFL forms state but my guess is his buddy lied on it when purchasing the rifle for Rittenhouse.

    Yep I hope he is smarter than he appears. At a minimum he will be found guilty of transporting a firearm. Leave your gun at home Bill.

    Thing is I support the man's right to defend himself in that situation, thing is I can't support several actions that put him in that situation.

    wayyy to many open ended/narrative-type questions from the defense to the accused. This is lawyering 101, dude- don't let your client keep rambling. Yes/no questions only.

    It's like they never watched Perry Mason. Or Ironside.
