Kenosha Prosecutors Withheld Crucial Evidence from the Defense – Video Added

The prosecutors withheld crucial video evidence from the jury in the Kyle Rittenhouse case.

Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger withheld high-definition video evidence from the defense that was “at the center of their case” and initially shared a lower quality version of drone footage from the night of Kyle Rittenhouse shooting, The Daily Mail reports based on the defense motion for a mistrial.

The defense claims Binger only shared the high-definition footage after evidence had closed on Saturday.

According to a motion filed today by the defense, “The problem is the prosecution gave the defense a compressed version of the video.”

“What that means is the video provided to the defense was not as clear as the video kept by the state,” the motion states. [See the two versions below]

Comparing the compressed version of the drone video given to the defense to the HD version the prosecution held, it’s clear that much more could be discerned by the footage the prosecution kept for themselves. The file was over three times larger than the compressed version. [Read more of filing below]

Lawyers for Rittenhouse filed their motion for a mistrial with prejudice based on this and several other grounds.

The defense raised the issue of “prosecutorial misconduct” and “over-reach” for Binger’s behavior when he “violated” Rittenhouse’s constitutional right to remain silent by suggesting that he had done so that he could “tailor” his story to fit the facts as they emerged during the trial.

The Two Files in Question

The prosecution portrayed this violent criminal as a paragon of virtue.

Gaige Grosskreutz, 28, was shot by Kyle Rittenhouse in August 2020 and is the star witness in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial. Grosskreutz once punched his own grandmother in the face. He is a violent criminal with a long rap sheet and he hates the police.

Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger was well aware of this when he paraded Gaige Grosskreutz, 28, the third man shot on the night of August 25, 2020, as a paragon of selfless virtue. He was a paramedic, the court heard, just there that evening to provide medical aid, as he claimed to have done at countless other protests across the country.

He has been accused of burglary, drink driving, carrying a loaded gun while intoxicated, domestic abuse, prowling, and trespassing, the Daily Mail reported.

He also has a history of defying and lying to the police.

Six days before he testified about his encounter with Rittenhouse, a DUI charge against him was dropped on a technicality, according to the Mail. This prevented the defense team from questioning Grosskreutz about his criminal past. The jury likewise heard nothing about it.

Nine days before he was shot by Rittenhouse, Grosskreutz was arrested for filming vehicles in a police parking lot in West Allis, Wisconsin, the Mail reported.

“Gaige made clear his anti-law enforcement views,” officer Ryan Stuettgen wrote in the police report of the incident.

In 2010, Grosskreutz was allegedly involved in an incident in which he hit his own grandmother in the face and smashed a lamp against a wall.

In 2012, Grosskreutz was arrested in New Berlin, Wisconsin, for allegedly burglarizing a home and stealing three video game consoles. The police report of the incident noted that officers suspected Grosskreutz of lying to them.

By now, people know the other two men shot and killed by Kyle Rittenhouse, Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber were also violent criminals. Rosenbaum raped five little boys between the ages of 9 and 11 years. Anthony Huber was a repeat criminal abuser who held his grandmother and brother at knifepoint. He said he’d gut his brother like a pig. Huber was arrested for strangulation and suffocation. He was caught in possession of deadly weapons, and drugs.

The jury in the Rittenhouse trial began deliberations on Tuesday morning following closing arguments on Monday, as radicals scream outside, threatening retaliation if Rittenhouse doesn’t go to prison for defending himself against these three criminals.

Rittenhouse clearly defended himself in each case and should be acquitted. The only reason this went to trial was political.

The tweets with the motion and the two files in question were added after publication.

Any sane thinking reasonable person in control of their own thoughts knows this is a kangaroo court. The only thing saving it is the judge was not predicted to be like he is, capable of reasonable thought.
No matter how it turn out the leotard commies will be out for blood. It’s what they do.

With a rogue prosecutor violating every canon of legal ethics, a media determined to orchestrate a guilty verdict in spite of the facts,and a howling mob of BLM and ANTIFA threatening the lives, families and property of the judge,jurors and witnesses there is compelling cause for the judge to dismiss the charges with prejudice.

What is sickening is how many of you here are normally so supportive of prosecutors while these activities have been going on for a long time but you refused to acknowledge it. Wake up.

Sure would like to know exactly what “technicality” facilitated the dropping of the DUI charge because that deserves an investigation given the actors involved.

@ Lars,

The Fundamental Transformation as promised by a transformative activist politician with a Weather Underground, church in name only house of evil background, and an intense psychotic hatred of white people no matter that is mother is one.
The Chicago model is going nationwide which is why Soros is buying up prosecutors.
We’ll be blessed if anything is left in 2024 and external enemies are loving the strife and division.

Will the judge be a man and dismiss the case? He should, or he is just like the scared jurors.

Reasonable doubt of guilt was very demonstrated.

Would have to be dismissed with prejudice or he has done Kyle a great dis-service. Better he get exonerated by a jury then Kyle will be done with it and better able to prevail in a lawsuit.
