A Christian crowdfunding website and Kenosha shooting suspect Kyle Rittenhouse's lawyers say they've raised nearly $1 million for Kyle Rittenhouse's legal defense fund.
A fundraiser on the Christian fundraising platform GiveSendGo says it has raised more than $390,000 for Rittenhouse, while one of the teen's attorneys, Lin Wood, said on Twitter Monday night that more than 11,000 people had donated a total of $605,550 to the #FightBack Foundation, which was launched to bring "lawsuits to stop the lies and smears of the radical left," and provide money for Rittenhouse's defense, according to its website.
Rittenhouse is accused of killing two people and injuring a third during a Black Lives Matter protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin, following the August 23 police shooting of Jacob Blake. The 17-year-old from Antioch, Illinois, faces multiple charges, including first-degree intentional homicide.
Last week, John Pierce said that he would defend Rittenhouse alongside local attorneys, in an announcement that coincided with the launching of #FightBack with Wood.
