Wisconsin Teen Charged With Buying Rifle For Kyle Rittenhouse
Dominick David Black bought the AR-style rifle allegedly used to kill two people during Kenosha protests because Rittenhouse wasn't old enough, authorities said.
A 19-year-old Wisconsin man was charged with felony weapons offenses for allegedly purchasing the AR-style rifle that 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse is accused of using to kill two people during protests in Kenosha over the summer.
Dominick David Black was charged last week with two counts of intentionally giving a dangerous weapon to a minor causing death, according to court records released following a court hearing on Monday. He faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted on both counts.
At this point, there remains no valid basis for that charge.
It rests on Mr. David being, in effect, an accessory to crimes allegedly committed by Mr. Rittenhouse with the rifle supplied by Mr. David.
Now that it is established a a legal fact that Mr. Rittenhouse did not commit any crimes with that rifle, there is no crime for Mr. David to be considered an accessory to.
Now that Mr. Rittenhouse is acquitted, to continue with the prosecution of Mr. David would be an act of barratry, for which any responsible attorney should, at the very least, be serious risk of being disbarred, if not criminally prosecuted.
