A Tennessee state representative is proposing a bill protecting individuals acquitted of murder.
It’s called “Kyle’s Law” and it would reimburse those charged with murder legal fees and lost wages if courts find they acted in self-defense and are acquitted of charges. The proposed legislation is named after Kyle Rittenhouse, the Wisconsin teenager acquitted of murdering two Kenosha protestors. Not everyone is on board though, Representative John Ray Clemmons has called the bill “offensive” and a political ploy.
Meanwhile, Kyle Rittenhouse filed paperwork this week to get all items seized after his arrest in 2020, including his clothes. He apparently wants to destroy the rifle. A court hearing on the motion is set for next week.
