Kyle Rittenhouse Prosecutor Uses ‘Road House’ Image in Closing Arguments
Kyle Rittenhouse murder trial on Monday, prosecutors used a still from the 1989 action-thriller “Road House” in their closing arguments.Kenosha County Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger accompanied the photo with the caption “The Defendant brought a gun to a fistfight.”The photo in question shows Patrick Swayze’s bouncer character Dalton preparing to fight Marshall Teague’s Jimmy. In the scene, a bar fight between the Double Deuce bouncers and a group of ex-cons is broken up when Brad Wesley (Ben Carrazza) fires a gunshot.Binger used the scene in an attempt to illustrate how Rittenhouse engaged in “reckless conduct” and acted unreasonably when he shot three people with an AR-15.
