Rittenhouse Judge Rules Men Killed Can't Be Called 'Victims'

The transcript discusses a court ruling where lawyers cannot call the men Kyle Rittenhouse is accused of killing 'victims'. Rittenhouse faces charges for shooting two men during protests against the police shooting of Jacob Blake, who was left paralyzed. The judge allows the defense to label the deceased as 'arsonists', 'rioters', or 'looters'. The prosecution argues Rittenhouse, then 17, brought a weapon across state lines to join a militia group aiming to protect businesses from protesters.
