Kyle Rittenhouse Released from Jail on $2 Million Bond
2020-11-21
[Breitbart] Illinois teenager Kyle Rittenhouse was released Friday from law enforcement custody after posting a $2 million bail.

Rittenhouse was charged with first-degree intentional homicide, first-degree reckless homicide, and attempted first-degree intentional homicide following the August 25th deaths of Anthony Huber
...the sweet, 26 year old avid skateboarder-cum-girlfriend strangler with a fondness for summer riots filmed trying to brain young Kyle with a skateboard, he got himself killed when he tried to take young Kyle’s gun...
and Joseph Rosenbaum
. ... “Jojo”, 36, was a convicted child rapist overly fond of prepubescent boys who was out on bond for beating up his girlfriend. He was there that night to pick fights with those protecting local businesses, and chased Kyle thinking he was someone else he’d confronted earlier. He was trying to grab Kyle‘s gun when he was shot...
in Kenosha Wisconsin during riots sparked by the police-involved shooting of Jacob Blake. Rittenhouse allegedly shot three people, two of whom shuffled off the mortal coil.
The third man Kyle shot, Gaige Grosskreutz, 26, has convictions for felony burglary and waving a gun around while intoxicated, so it was illegal for him to own a gun. He was on staff that night as a “medic” for the People’s Revolution Movement, a faction of Milwaukee’s Black Lives Matter. He was shot in the arm while aiming his handgun at Kyle, who was on the ground. Gaige later posted on Facebook that he regretted not killing the kid...
"Kyle Rittenhouse’s bond was posted this afternoon at about 2:00 pm which was set up through his attorney," said Kenosha County Sheriff’s Sgt. David Wright. "He is no longer in jug at the Kenosha County Jail."

As Breitbart News news hound AWR Hawkins previously reported:

Rittenhouse told news hounds he was in Kenosha to protect people’s property, and in late September his attorney, Pierce, told Breitbart News Sunday, "Wisconsin is an open carry state. You’ve seen the video of what was going on in that city. It was a war zone, and Kyle had every right — just as much a right — to be there as the people that were trying to burn down that city, and he was attempting to protect property and attempting to be there to provide medical aid."

Pierce added, "Every person that has any sense at all is going to take a weapon to that location. It was a legal weapon. I can’t comment right now further on the specifics of where the weapon was obtained. It was obtained as a legal weapon. It did not cross state lines. That charge is incorrect as a matter of law in Wisconsin. Actually, that weapon can be possessed by anyone 16 years or older."

Earlier this month Dominick Black, 19, was arrested and charged with allegedly purchasing the AR-15 that Rittenhouse used.

Black is accused of receiving money from Rittenhouse, "then on May 1st he drove 300 miles north from Kenosha to a hardware store in upper Wisconsin to buy the [AR-15]," according to an affidavit.

In October, Illinois did not press charges against Rittenhouse for possession of the AR-15 because the rifle was allegedly "purchased, stored, and used" out of Prairie State.
Update from PJ Media at 11:40 a.m. ET:
He raised the money through a crowdfunding effort thanks, in part, to My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell.

“KYLE RITTENHOUSE IS OUT OF JAIL,” L. Lin Wood, Rittenhouse’s attorney, announced on Twitter Friday. “God bless ALL who donated to help [Fight back] raise required $2M cash bail. Special thanks to Actor Ricky Schroder & Mike Lindell for putting us over the top. Kyle is SAFE. Thanks to ALL who helped this boy.”

#5  Kyle going on any media, especially at this point, would be a really bad idea.

The ban does, however, keep supporters from expressing themselves. Conversely, it does keep his haters from doing so as well.

#4  Young Kyle is certainly getting an education.

#3  Mark Dice: Facebook banned his personal page after his arrest, preventing him from giving his side of the story. Defending Kyle Rittenhouse on Facebook is still deemed a violation of their terms of service and will get posts removed
