After trying to commit suicide, for the second time, Rosenbaum had been put into a mental hospital. Rosenbaum had been released from the hospital the very same day he was shot and killed.
He was released without medication and he couldn't get his prescription filled because the pharmacy had closed early due to the protest/riots.
His life had been seriously bad.
Only met his real dad twice in his life.
Molested by his stepdad , almost daily.
His mom went to prison when he was 13.
He ended up at a group home where he started taking hard drugs.
Later, his mom kicked him out of her house.
He then sexually molested 5 kids and was imprisoned for those things when he was 18.
He's spent most of his adult life in prison.
In 2016 he'd met a woman and had a child with her. She later fled to WI and he chased after her.
He had a lot of trouble trying to see his daughter. He'd only seen her one time after going to WI.
He met another woman while he was in the hospital (for attempted suicide?)
When they both left the hospital they were homeless, and remained homeless up to the day he'd been killed.
He and the woman had become engaged during that time.
He'd tried to work but his work was shoddy.
He'd attacked his fiancee, knocking her down and leaving her bloodied and he was jailed for that.
While he was in jail his fiance got a restraining order on him.
After he was released from jail he'd tried to commit suicide and was put into the hospital. After released from the hospital he was put in jail for violating the restraining order, then he was placed into a mental hospital.
After he was released from the mental hospital, on the day of the shooting, he tried to go back to his fiancee but she turned him away.
He then went to the protest/riots, where he tried to get people to shoot him, and then according to the eyewitness reporter, he began chasing Kyle down the street and into the car lot where he was shot and killed.
It does seem that Rosenbaum truly wanted to die, by any means necessary.
Huber's life wasn't all that much better.

These things are definitely not going to help the DA's case.
