For months, Kyle Rittenhouse’s trial stood at the center of a national conversation about race and politics, due to the night of protest against police brutality the shooting disrupted. This conversation, and Rittenhouse’s culpability, is expected to be pushed to the forefront yet again in 2025 as the lawsuit brought by the victims’ families is expected to head to trial.

The premiere coincides with the addition of three new original series to Law&Crime’s slate, BodyCam by Law&Crime, Interrogations by Law&Crime, and Most Outrageous Crimes, in September. All three shows feature fresh crime-in-action programming while also signaling a commitment on Law&Crime’s part to continue bringing viewers the true crime stories they crave in newly adapted formats.

  1. This should be interesting. I remember what happened to Jacob Blake and being just… heart broken about the events. It didn’t have to go down that way. It shouldn’t have gone down that way.

    Then the protests during the day, I could understand. The violence and rage at night? The way they tore through our town. Watching people who aren’t even from or live in Kenosha, destroy our beautiful town.

    Watching LIVE on several devices, multiple streamers so we could see what was happening. Then Watching the good Kyle was doing, the violence towards him and so many others who were tired of the violence towards our town and its people, standing strong to defend and protect us.

    I watched LIVE everything happening on multiple streams… I knew Kyle defended himself. I knew all along.

    Now, I know the followers who are verbal on KCE are very republican. I am not. But I know that the verdict in the Rittenhouse trial was just! I know because I watched with my own eyes. The same way I watched LIVE what happened on Jauary 6th.

    All of this to say, I stand by Rittenhouse! He saved Kenosha and stopped the violence. He was am excellent shot. I’m saddened to see how his life has changed so much since.

    1. Spot on….except for the Blake thing. He shoulda been shot in the head. Rape, attempted kidnapping….fuck him

      1. Are you making progress on reconciling your deep-seated and long-standing desire to lay with a man? You really need to submit to your yearnings and stop denying your homosexuality. It is difficult to be confined in a closet. Set yourself free.

        2
        5
          1. Straight White Male:

            You have been identified as a closeted homosexual. Because you are attempting to deny your true sexual identity, you may not understand that you can be gay and not be sexually attracted to children. The same holds true for heterosexuals.

            Please understand that if your repressed sexual fantasies involve adult men and not children, you not a pedophile. You are merely a run-of-the-mill self-loathing closeted homosexual.

            You will feel better if you simply accept who you are.

            2
            5
            1. Joel, we know it makes you feel more validated about your own sexuality to come here. But it is concerning that you were triggered by “Rape, attempted kidnapping “. Are you ok with that behavior from Jacob Blake or anyone???

    2. On Blake you say: “It didn’t have to go down that way. It shouldn’t have gone down that way.”

      Completely agree, it didn’t have to go down that way but Blake set the entire thing in motion. It shouldn’t have gone down that way, but his actions are the reason it did.

    3. By supporting criminals and the riots- we know you’re not a Republican- you didn’t have to tell us.

          1. Fake news? Really? It never happened? All the court records are forgeries?

            Not only are you a known closeted homosexual, but you are an incredibly stupid closeted homosexual.

              1. Straight White Male:

                Every time you post you provide more evidence you are a self-loathing closeted homosexual. It appears you are the only person who does not see it.

                Set yourself free and stop denying who you really are.

                1
                1
  2. Thank you Kyle! Those dead clowns came out acting hard and looking for trouble then they found it. I am glad he was found innocent

  3. Who knows what may have happened, if
    Kyle didn’t stop those dirtbags right in their tracks?

    He is a true hero that did what many people only dream of doing.

  4. Anyone interested in K9 Riggs story, it was on Investigation discovery (ID) channel, show: body cam this week. You can stream online or catch rerun probably, air date 9/24/24

  5. Rittenhouse shooting statistics:

    100% of Kyle’s shots were fired into degenerates
    100% of those degenerates were Jews

    Great work Kyle.
