“If he didn’t have that gun, my son would’ve been dead,” Wendy Rittenhouse says on the eve of closing arguments in the case against her son, Kyle.

On the eve of closing arguments in the homicide trial of Kyle Rittenhouse, his mother argued in a “Nightly News” interview that he would have been killed during unrest last year had he not been carrying his semiautomatic rifle.

Rittenhouse, now 18, has argued that he used the Smith & Wesson M&P 15 in self-defense as he was attacked by men who lingered in Kenosha, Wisconsin, on Aug. 25, 2020, amid protests over the police shooting of Jacob Blake. It was past an emergency curfew, and authorities had ordered people to disperse, when shots rang out.
