Lawyer for Sgt. Daniel Perry reacts to Kyle Rittenhouse verdict
Sgt. Daniel Perry's attorney says the Kyle Rittenhouse trial is an example of why it's important for a jury to view all evidence from both sides.
AUSTIN, Texas - The attorney for Sgt. Daniel Perry is reacting to the verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse case.
Perry is charged with murder for the shooting death of Garrett Foster during a protest last year in Downtown Austin.
Sgt Perry's case is still in the pre-trial phase. His lawyer says the Rittenhouse trial is an example of why it's important for a jury to view all the evidence from both sides.
Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges Friday after pleading self-defense in the deadly Kenosha shootings that became a flashpoint in the debate over guns, vigilantism and racial injustice in the U.S.
Rittenhouse was charged with homicide, attempted homicide and reckless endangering for killing two men and wounding a third with an AR-style semi-automatic rifle in the summer of 2020 during a tumultuous night of protests over the shooting of a Black man, Jacob Blake, by a white Kenosha police officer.
