KENOSHA, Wisc. â Kenosha County Circuit Court Judge Bruce Schroeder specifically called out Jeffrey Toobin, CNN’s legal analyst, and “another attorney there” on Wednesday as an example of the media’s sometimes poor coverage of the ongoing Kyle Rittenhouse trial.
The criticism towards CNN and some of those in the media started after the defense did not want commentary to be aired in a video the prosecution was showing the jury because it was hearsay and the man airing the livestream has not been called up as a witness so they could cross-examine him. Schroeder and Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger then got into a back and forth about the defense wanting to admit evidence about what Joseph Rosenbaum had said and done in the moments leading up to the shooting. Schroeder ruled such evidence could be presented to the jury.
Schroeder said it is critical for the people of Kenosha and the rest of the country to have faith in the final verdict at the end of the trial.
