|Updated:

Kyle Rittenhouse’s defense lawyers filed a motion on Monday asking for a mistrial due to prosecutorial misconduct, although it appears Judge Bruce Schroeder will not address the issue until the jury is finished deliberating.

Members of the jury started their deliberation process on Tuesday morning and are expected to again deliberate Wednesday. The defense’s motion to declare the case a mistrial with prejudice was filed before closing arguments were made on Monday.
