The judge presiding over the homicide trial for Kyle Rittenhouse motioned to dismiss the sixth count against the defendant Monday, which was a misdemeanor for possession of a dangerous weapon under the age of 18.
The move comes after Kenosha County Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder signaled on Friday he would inform the jury about a narrow exemption to Wisconsin’s gun law following a third major attempt by Rittenhouse’s attorneys to dismiss the misdemeanor charge.
