What do you think Kyle Rittenhouse's mom is thinking now that he's looking at life in prison?

Of course she should be charged as an accomplice.

But WAS she an accomplice? All I hear are rumors on Facebook and I’m not going to assume they’re true. If they were, why can’t I find anything about it on any of the news sites?

I don’t need to pay for college now! Great! More money for booze and cigarettes!

I doubt college was ever in the works.

Maybe the reputable news sites have a little something invested in verifying stories before they publish. No such commitment to journalistic integrity exists on post-at-will media.

> But WAS she an accomplice?

If anybody here actually knows the answer to that, I hope they’ll get to repeat it in a courtroom.

Exactly @Jeruba, which is why I’m not ranting and raving on FB about it.

I just googled “How did Kyle Rittenhouse get the gun” and a lot of sites came up.

Here’s the Milwaukee Sentinel’s brief article. It says the gun belonged to his friend. There’s also a discussion about the legal age to carry a gun in Kenosha. I didn’t read it.

Thanks @jca2. So it would appear his mother did not buy the gun for him. It belonged to a friend.
I hate rumors.

I raised an idiot.

Maybe wondering where she went wrong.
