In 2020, Rittenhouse shot and killed two people and injured another during a protest over the police shooting of a Black man. Rittenhouse was acquitted on charges of intentional homicide, reckless homicide, attempted first-degree intentional homicide and recklessly endangering safety in November after a trial that drew nationwide attention and controversy. Rittenhouse's legal team argued that the teen was acting in self-defense and that he was celebrated by many conservatives. Many on the left felt that Rittenhouse's acquittal was evidence of a broken system because prosecutors painted him as a vigilante.
