Three days after Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges for killing two and wounding a third man in Kenosha 15 months ago, the teenager was on Tabloid Carlson's Fox Shmooze garbage hour, but, oh, did Rittenhouse have a moment.
When Rittenhouse was arrested last year, a $2 million dollar bond was posted, mostly raised by conservative lawyers such as John Pierce and L. Lin Wood. Now that Rittenhouse is free, Looney Lin Woodchips wants the money back, but Pierce doesn't.
Pierce holds a receipt from a Wisconsin court, but is willing to give it up. Rittenhouse, in being interviewed by Carlson, shredded both lawyers. He fired Pierce a few months back, and hired Mark Richards, who successfully argued in favor of Rittenhouse. The now-18 year old Rittenhouse accused Woodchips & Pierce of attempting to exploit him for personal gain, as Richards had over the weekend, in similarly blasting right wing media.
We know this. Looney Woodchips wants to extend his 15 minutes of fame. Pierce just wants out of the whole scene, and who could blame him? Carlson, who hired a documentary crew to film Rittenhouse during the trial for his own selfish purposes, was spared the wrath for now, but if Rittenhouse goes to another show, like, say, for example, 60 Minutes, that could change.
Woodchips has legal problems of his own, which is why he's so hot for the $2 million as if he won the lottery. A chunk of the money was posted by Rittenhouse's mom, so figure she'll get her share back, which cuts the payday for Woodchips.
Prediction: The Rittenhouse family will get the money, and donate what was raised for them to charity. Turns out Kyle's actually found his maturity and brains. Maybe he can use the money for acting classes.
