A jury on Friday acquitted Kyle Rittenhouse, the teenager who fatally shot two protesters in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and wounded a third, of murder and other felony charges. The unanimous jury found Rittenhouse not guilty of all five counts that he had been facing, bringing an end to a controversial trial that has polarized the country. Rittenhouse, then 17, shot and killed Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Anthony Huber, 26, and wounded a third protester last year amid demonstrations against police brutality in Kenosha, where police had shot and paralyzed a Black man named Jacob Blake. Rittenhouse has maintained he shot the men in self defense. You can read more here: #KyleRittenhouse #BreakingNews
