Kyle Rittenhouse's Family Publicly Throws Him Under the Bus
Kyle Rittenhouse has been publicly dragged by his own family, who say the far-right darling left them high and dry as his mother and sister brace for eviction from their home.
Faith, Kyle’s sister, put out a desperate plea for help on May 29, setting up a GoFundMe to help fight their eviction notice.
Faith said she and her mother have struggled to maintain employment due to the specter cast on them by the 2020 shooting in which Kyle fatally shot two men amid protests. She told the V-Radio podcast on June 2 that she also wound up hospitalized with appendicitis and has been in the hospital six times in the past six months, though she said her brother never bothered to reach out. She added that “people still believe my mother drove Kyle or was somehow involved in his decision to go to Kenosha.”
“Just under 4 years ago, our lives were shattered when my brother was involved in a tragic shooting incident,” Faith wrote in the GoFundMe. “The aftermath of this event uprooted our family's stability and left us grappling with grief, trauma, and the harsh reality of starting over.”
