By now, I imagine everyone has seen the videos from Kenosha concerning Kyle Rittenhouse. We have all seen how he was attacked on at least two occasions by a violent mob. In both cases this child was running away from vicious thugs trying to harm him. In the first case he was attacked by someone throwing what appears to be a flaming "Molotov Cocktail" (some claim it was "just" a brick in a plastic bag). In the 2nd incident, he was on the ground where he was kicked in the head, struck in the head with a large wood board and assaulted by a criminal with a handgun in his hand.
The point? Kyle did everything possible to get away from the mob, before finally defending himself. He was in obvious danger of imminent great bodily harm or death. All three of the people shot had violent criminal histories. It's obvious that this was a clear-cut case of self defense.
In spite of this, in spite of all the evidence that he did nothing wrong, a vindictive DA has charged him with murder. Obviously he will be acquitted (unless the DA manages to populate the jury only with BLM/Pantifa thugs anyway).
So, the question-how much can Rittenhouse be awarded in the malicious prosecution case against the DA (and city)?

How Can You Prove Malicious Prosecution?
A malicious prosecution is essentially a baseless accusation brought against an individual for the purposes of harassing or distressing him or her. The plaintiff in a malicious prosecution case must provide evidence for several factors to succeed in a claim. These four elements include:
Proving the initiator of the prosecution acted in bad faith, or for some other reason other than the pursuit of justice against an alleged offender.
The resulting proceeding led to a ruling in the victim’s favor.
There was no probable cause that would have reasonably led to the proceeding.
The initiator of the proceeding acted with malice toward the victim.
All of these seem like pretty clear-cut conclusions.
He violated multiple laws just being there with the firearm at his age. Which throws into question whether he is even eligible for a self defense claim as he was engaged in criminal activity.

Exactly. I dont understand why people dont realize this.

The only law he violated was being underage for open carry in WI. A misdemeanor, if not just a citation like running a red light. That doesn't mean he shouldn't be able to protect himself from violent savages trying to hurt or even kill him.
Perfect example of why it's better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6.

Sorry. Defending yourself against attempted murder by freedom fighters is racist. He was inhibiting the fight for freedom by defending himself. He'lll be charged with a hate crime.
Man gets shoot in the back for walking into his car.
This kid walks past cops while having a gun strapped to his chest with people yelling that he shot someone and is apprehended the next day.
