In reply to the discussion: Rittenhouse Judge screwed up! [View all]Heartstrings
(7,349 posts)It was bought for Kyle up in Ladysmith, WI by his friend Dominick Black, paid for by Rittenhouse. The firearm was kept in a gun safe at Dominick Blacks father house in Kenosha. Rittenhouse chose the long gun because he knew he couldnt legally own a handgun and the gun looked cool. Whether he could legally own the long gun is still subject to debate. He picked up the firearm at the Black residence that night, after driving himself from Antioch, IL (I have heard he didnt have a drivers license but cannot verify that).
Dominick Black is facing years in prison for his admitted part in the straw man firearm purchase. Would be a travesty of justice if Rittenhouse gets off, but his friend Black has to serve time.
A quick google search of Bruce Schroeder yields this info:
Schroeder attended Marquette University for college and law school, receiving a bachelor's degree in 1967 and a J.D. in 1970. In 1971, he joined the Kenosha County District Attorney's Office as an assistant district attorney. He became a district attorney in 1972. In 1983, he was appointed to the Kenosha County Circuit Court.
This judge has been on the bench since 1983 and has shown so many reasons why he needs to retire. His cellphone going off at crucial times is just one example. Quoting Bible passages, past cases he tried but cant remember details, laughing inappropriately, going off on the prosecutor, asking how the temperature is in the room during crucial testimony
..just a few examples.
Hes an asshole and an embarrassment to my state.
