Kyle Rittenhouse, who was acquitted in 2021 of homicide charges related to the deaths of two men he shot and killed during BLM protests, defended efforts to pardon convicted murderer Daniel Perry
Perry would later claim that Foster had raised the gun at him and that he had acted in self-defense. Witness statements contradicted his claim that Foster had aimed the weapon at him, and an inspection of the rifle by investigators found that the safety was engaged and the chamber empty at the time of Foster’s death. Prosecutors argue that Perry’s invocation of self-defense was not applicable to the situation, given that Perry hadGovernor Abbott for proposing a pardon.
Perry could face life in prison should the conviction stand; the date of his sentencing has yet to be announced.
