rittenhouse not guilty. as to the fifth count of the information, gauge grosskreutz, we the jury find kyle rittenhouse not guilty. neil: not guilty on all counts. we re told kyle rittenhouse is on his way home and trying to get his leaf back together. you re looking on the right-hand side of the scene, kenosha wisconsin where the governor was concerned for the possibility of violence that he mobilize or was preparing to mobilize up to 500 national guard troops. we do see a stepped up legal presence there and police presence there. but so far there s been no problems there. welcome, everybody. i m neil cavuto. this is your world on the impact of the case that is perhaps the most scrutinized and publicized since going back to o.j. simpson nearly two decades ago. what is at stake tonight and what they re watching for, we go to garrett tenney in kenosha on how things look now. garrett? yeah, neil. you can see a handful of folks are outside the courthouse here. really most o
that followed a police shooting of jacob blake. the prosecution has argued rittenhouse was the aggressor. protests outside the courthouse got a bit tense yesterday and we ve been watching this build up. remember, there are 500 national guard men and women that the governor has called in with regard to what might happen after the verdict is read. they didn t do that the night of rioting going on august of 2020, just pointing that out. yesterday the defense made a second request for a mistrial after the jury asked to rewatch some key drone footage of the shootings. rittenhouse s attorney claim they received an inferior version of that video not high resolution that was shown during closing arguments only. watch. we didn t have the quality of evidence that the state had until the case had been closed and i think that is required in a case like this where he is looking at a life sentence potentially without parole if he is convicted. harris: that video is huge in this case ri
guitar. 469 rooms in this hotel. and this auditorium seats 40,000 people. brian: going to be hopping in a little while. steve: holds 7,000. ainsley: i read 40,000. that would be a football stadium. steve: how cool is this. brian: very successful division 2 team. ainsley: we have 7,000 people coming to the patriot awards tonight. we are so excited. isn t this beautiful? we are going to highlight first responders, law enforcement. steve: we have a drone. ainsley: so many wonderful things for our country and this is where it is all going to be held. steve: absolutely is. things kick off 8:00 eastern time on fox nation. if you don t have fox nation, it s a good reason to get it. it will be on the weekend on the channel. nonetheless, take a look at this place. this is awesome. they really rolled out the red carpet for us. we got here late in the day yesterday. it s a fun place. i have never been to this particular location. it s great. brian: reminds me of las vegas a little bit.
mcmichael and their neighbor rodney william bryant stand accused of murdering 25-year-old ahmaud arbery in what many are calling a modern day lynching. the men claim this is a citizen s arrest gone wrong. today arbery s mother had to witness horrifying autopsy photos of her son. she walked out. the family is receiving moral support from faith leaders and jesse jackson was asked to be removed from the courtroom as done with the reverend al sharpton. jesse jackson, i believe is still here. he is, your honor, i think we know an icon in the civil rights movement, not just a witness to it, he the personification of it and in other circumstances, i think everybody would be happy to have their picture taken and have an autograph but in the context of this trial we object to his public presence in the gallery of the courtroom. i guess the next question is what pastor is next? is raphael warnock next person appearing this afternoon? the judge denied the defense s request to re
I want to go to ted williams, the former d.c. homicide detective and attorney. very early on, he was quite critical of how the prosecutors had handled this case. ted, first off, your reaction to not guilty across the board. hi, neil. i believe really that there s no winners in this case. we have two men who are dead, one who was severely wounded. we have a 18-year-old kid, kyle rittenhouse, that i believe got in over his head. but kyle rittenhouse was closed in what we defined as self-defense. he had a right on that night to defend himself. he believed apparently and the jury believed that he was in great fear of bodily harm. when you look at the fact that
