Rittenhouse fate 'in the hands of the jury,' not Biden, media, athletes: mother

Kyle Rittenhouse's mother stressed that her son's verdict is "in the hands of the jury" ahead of a ruling on what charges the judge will allow for consideration in the Wisconsin murdertrial. 

Jury members will prepare for deliberation following an emotional and tense week of arguments and testimony. 

Rittenhouse fatally shot Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, in an initial confrontation and just moments later shot and killed Anthony Huber, 26, and wounded Gaige Grosskreutz, 27. The state brought charges of first-degree intentional homicide, attempted first-degree intentional homicide, first-degree reckless homicide; reckless endangering; and illegal possession of a weapon by a person under 18. 

Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder will possibly rule Saturday as to what lesser charges he will allow on some of those counts, at which point the jury will take over and deliberate.
