(The prosecution will be given a chance to rebut the defense arguments before the trial ends.)<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>Rosenbaum also had a criminal record as a convicted chid molester, which Richards did not specifically mention.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>The defense was generally able to discuss Rosenbaum\u2019s character because the prosecution had described him as an innocent bystander, whose violent acts \u2014 including setting fires and threatening people by using the \u201cN word\u201d \u2014 posed no real threat.<\/p>\n<p>Binger had argued that Rosenbaum, like other participants in the Black Lives Matter riots on Aug. 25, 2020, was a concerned citizen trying to stop what he perceived as an \u201cactive shooter,\u201d even stating the crowd had the \u201cright\u201d to chase Rittenhouse.<\/p>\n<p>Richards argued that Rittenhouse had acted in self-defense, and noted there was no evidence that the defendant was a \u201cwhite supremacist looking for trouble,\u201d as the media and politicians had claimed in the immediate aftermath of events.<\/p>\n<p><em>Joel B.
