Prosecutors seeking to increase Kyle Rittenhouses $2 million bond said Thursday that the ability of the Kenosha, Wisc., shooter to roam freely before trial is extremely rare for an accused murderer and argued his address should be made public. But his defense attorneys argue that housing Rittenhouse in a secret safe house is necessary to protect his life.
Richards, who did not respond to requests for comment, has not denied in court filings that Rittenhouse failed to alert the court to his new address until the issue spilled out into public view. He instead cited threats and said his client has remained in constant touch with his attorneys throughout the process.
Asked to provide copies of the threats, Pierce said he could not immediately produce them because it would take days to organize, adding that they are spread over Facebook, Twitter, email and voice-mail messages on multiple devices of different parties.
I wouldnt even know where to start, he said. He characterized the messages as threatening nasty and serious bodily harm.

If the threats were real, the lawyer would have zero trouble in producing them.

You're still a very young kid so the hunt will continue and you will always be a hunted criminal no matter how long you are on the lam.
WE WILL FIND YOU!
