Demonstrator says he’s ‘worried about Kenosha’ following Rittenhouse verdict
A demonstrator outside the Kenosha County Courthouse told Fox News Digital’s Michael Ruiz that he thinks the verdict will go in Kyle Rittenhouse’s favor, but that he’s “worried about Kenosha because I don’t want to see nobody hurt.
The comment comes as five protesters in support of Black Lives Matter have gathered outside the building, along with a trio of counter-protesters.
“I am for peaceful protesting. I am for free speech,” the demonstrator from Milwaukee said.
“I am here to support Kyle Rittenhouse because I’m a constitutionalist, I believe that he defended himself,” he added.

Kyle Rittenhouse trial: Jury to begin deliberations after closing arguments made
The prosecution painted Kyle Rittenhouse as a "chaos tourist" who went to Kenosha last August looking for trouble during closing arguments on Monday, while his defense attorney argued that the then-17-year-old was just trying to protect businesses when a "crazy person" ambushed him and forced Rittenhouse to defend himself.
Judge Bruce Schroeder ordered the jurors to assemble on Tuesday morning at 9:00 a.m. for deliberations after two weeks of testimony from about 30 witnesses.
Rittenhouse is facing charges of first-degree reckless homicide, first-degree intentional homicide, attempted first-degree intentional homicide, and two counts of first-degree recklessly endangering safety.
The judge tossed one charge of possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18 on Monday after Rittenhouse's defense team argued that a subsection of the law concerning short-barreled rifles was grounds for dismissal.
