80. The prosecution witness
Fri Nov 12, 2021, 04:23 PM
Nov 2021

Discredited himself by admitting to pointing a gun at KR.

Or in the case of the prosecution lying, video was used to discredit their claims.


These are the facts of the case, as shown on video and backed up by prosecution witnesses including the medical examiner and one of the men shot:

The first man shot threatened to kill Kyle, chased him as he was retreating and tried to grab his rifle. This is on video and backed up by testimony and the autopsy.

The second man shot was in the process of beating him with a skateboard, again this is on video.

The third admitted on the the stand to drawing and pointing his gun at Kyle.


Those are facts, they may not be convenient to the narrative that some are pushing, but they are facts nonetheless.
