Juror In Rittenhouse Trial Dismissed For Telling Joke About Police Shooting Of Jacob Blake
In Wisconsin, a juror gets dismissed from the Kyle Rittenhouse murder trial for making a joke about the Kenosha police shooting of Jacob Blake. Kenosha County Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder addressed a request from prosecutors to excuse a juror who had made a joke about the Blake shooting to a courtroom deputy while being escorted to his car earlier in the week. The joke, according to prosecutors, was, "Why did the Kenosha police shoot Jacob Blake, seven times? Because they ran out of bullets." Blake, a Black man, was shot in the back seven times by a white police officer outside an apartment complex on Aug. 23, 2020, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down. Rittenhouse is facing multiple charges, including homicide. He faces up to life in prison if convicted. 👀 Watch the 11.4.21 edition of #RolandMartinUnfiltered • GA Mostly White Jury, Voting Rights; APA R... #RolandMartinUnfiltered partner: Buick | It’s ALL about you!
