1. He better start practicing those crocodile tears again.

Standing his ground by traveling hundreds of miles into another state? That is a Koch bro "law".

2. I hope it is pointed out to the jury that he fake cries.

11. EVERYTHING will be fair game to the attorneys...

...they will make sure the Court sees Kyle's previous "crocodile's tears" antics. EVERYTHING he has said and done since the criminal trial will be open for review in this civil trial, where the standard is NOT beyond a reasonable doubt.

I hope they take everything he has and hopes to have. The little bastard MURDERED two people and severely wounded another.

3. Surprised that he was that hard to find

Considering that he is on the wingnut "celebrity" appearance tour.

6. He pulls in a boatload of attendees. A row boat load. n/t

4. I really, really hope this lawsuit prevails.

That this smug, smirking little POS was acquitted is an outrage.

7. Wouldn't that be nice!

10. Good chance it will, I think. Different standards of proof between criminal and civil courts.

Seems a lot like OJ’s case of murder.

5. There goes his wanting to fly for FedEx.

8. Sue the shit out of him - but, really - what to expect

I mean what does the guy really have in $ or assets?

12. Well, he got back about $1 million in bail money that he got thru

Crowd funding mostly.

Though the lawyers he fired say he still owes them.

He says he's going to start a YouTube channel and going to community college.

He was hiding at a relative's place when they were trying to serve him.

From the link:
"Huber's lawyers and private investigators needed over 100 hours to locate Rittenhouse to serve him with the civil lawsuit paperwork, eventually serving him at his sister's house. Rittenhouse's lawyers tried to argue the case should be dismissed because he was not properly served. The judge dismissed that claim."

9. Wrongful death lawsuit lead to jail time?

[FakeNoose]

13. It's a civil suit for money damages

If this turns into a jury trial, then it only takes a majority to convict, not all 12 jurors. I'm pretty sure the fake tears won't make any difference this time.

14. I hope his parents are named in the suit!

Also the cops who let him slide while playing vigilante.
