Rittenhouse judge back in spotlight during jury instructions

, already the subject of scrutiny for various actions in the case, drew attention again on Monday for his handling of jury instructions.

Schroeder, Rittenhouse's attorneys and prosecutors spent all day Friday discussing the directions, continued written communication over the weekend and still had protests and worries to hash out Monday morning before the 36 pages were ready for Schroeder to read aloud to jurors. Legal experts have for decades debated how to make instructions more understandable to jurors, unfamiliar with the archaic and confusing terms in statutes and criminal codes. In Wisconsin, a committee of judges creates model jury instructions which attorneys and individual trial judges can use as-is or adapt for specific cases.

About 30 minutes into his reading of the instructions to jurors, Schroeder began explaining in his own words how jurors should discuss primary charges and lesser charges, then fell silent. Phyllis Cotey, a clinical professor at Florida International University's College of Law and a retired judge, said carefully scrutinizing and revising jury instructions and even stopping mid-instruction to correct a potential error are wise steps to try and give jurors a clear understanding of the law.

LORD GOD this too YOU have. I BLESS YOUR NAME today. Casting ALL care upon HIM for HE CARETH for you. JESUS CHRIST RULES

This guy is clearly in someone's pocket, specifically who I d/k, but it is definitely in FAVOR of RITTENHOUSE regardless of the case built by prosecutors. The BIAS has been evident through out the trial & it's sad the PROSECUTION didn't do ANYTHING about it.

JFC!

Guilty !

Wahhhhh! He isn't doing things the way WE want him too! HE is the reason the prosecution fucked up so badly!

C.R.E.A.M
