US Written before How crazy things have become. Yesterday, violence broke out outside the court where the Rittenhouse jury is continuing to deliberate.
But as Judge Bruce Schroeder and Kenosha police explained today, the situation is even crazier than this. The police arrested people they believed wanted to take photos of the jury. On the department’s official Twitter account, the police stated that the jury was not affected by this person.
Last night, a person who claimed to be connected to a national media was briefly detained and issued several traffic-related subpoenas. The police suspected that this person tried to film the jurors. This incident is being further investigated.

The judge said that in the next trial, he barred MSNBC from entering the court.
Judge Schroeder said: “I have instructed that during the trial, anyone from MSNBC News is not allowed to enter this building.” “This is a very serious issue. I don’t know what the ultimate truth is, but absolutely Don’t think too many people follow the jury bus-this is a very serious issue and will be referred to the appropriate authorities for further action.”
Chicago Channel 5 (NBC affiliate) comfirmed This is actually the NBC producer who participated on Thursday morning.
Now, if this is a random person, this is dangerous and wild enough. However, if this is actually a person associated with MSNBC and/or NBC, then they have done too much this time, and they are clearly trying to trouble the jury.
This is not the only incident involving effort Take photos or jury.
A member of the media who was allowed to enter the courtroom during Kyle Rittenhouse’s trial accidentally took pictures of at least one juror and was kicked out of the courtroom and was not allowed to enter. These photos were ordered to be deleted.
As we pointed out last week, Someone was prevented from following the jury’s bus, his video was deleted, and most importantly, someone claimed to be a relative of George Freud, and people tried to harass the jury.
