UPDATE: Jury in Rittenhouse Case Behind Closed Doors – Still Deliberating – No Word on When Verdict Will Be Reached

The jurors in the Kyle Rittenhouse case are still in deliberations.  There is no word on when they will reach a verdict. 

The jurors in the Rittenhouse case are behind closed doors.  As the late hours of Tuesday come to an end, there is no word on when a verdict may come.

With the world watching, the jury in the Rittenhouse case is behind closed doors deliberating the charges in the case.  Weighing over the case is the defendant’s lawyers’ motion for a mistrial with prejudice, meaning if the judge granted their motion, prosecutors could not refile the charges.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports:

If the jury comes back and acquits Rittenhouse in the fatal shooting of two people and the wounding of a third, the motion is moot.

But if the jury returns a conviction on any count, Schroeder will need to make a ruling.

Given those dynamics, legal experts told the Journal Sentinel it was somewhat unusual that Schroeder had not yet issued a ruling on the motion.

“I’m not sure why the judge has waited to rule,” said Michael O’Hear, professor of criminal law at Marquette Law School, in a email. “It seems unlikely to me that he would have turned the case over to the jury if he expected to grant the mistrial.”

We are all waiting on a verdict.  Per Kristen Barbaresi on Twiiter some updates. Earlier on the lunch break:

An hour ago she tweeted:

She now is reporting whether the jurors will continue or go home for the night.

The jury is still behind closed doors.
