Judge declines new arrest warrant for Kyle Rittenhous­e

- Thomas Cain

MADISON, Wis. — A judge on Thursday refused prosecutor­s’ request to issue a new arrest warrant for an 18-year-old from Illinois accused of killing two people during a police brutality protest in Wisconsin last summer.

Kenosha County Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger alleged that Kyle Rittenhous­e failed to update his address when he moved out of his Antioch apartment in November, amounting to a bail violation. In addition to a new arrest warrant, Binger asked Judge Bruce Schroeder to increase Rittenhous­e’s bail by $200,000. Rittenhous­e’s attorneys countered that Rittenhous­e is in hiding due to threats.

Schroeder refused both of Binger’s requests. During a testy hearing the judge said people out on bail often fail to update their addresses and aren’t arrested. He ordered Rittenhous­e attorney Mark Richards to turn over Rittenhous­e’s current physical address but said it would be sealed to the public and only he and the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Department would have access to it. The judge refused to give Binger the address, saying he didn’t want more violence in Kenosha. The move — and the comment — left Binger flabbergas­ted.

Thomas Cain of Yuma has been named to the Dean’s List at the University of Central Arkansas for the fall semester of 2020.

To earn a place on the list, students must earn a 3.5 grade-point average or better while carrying a course load of at least 12 credit hours.
