Man charged with buying gun for Kyle Rittenhouse takes plea
The man who bought then-17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse an assault-style rifle will avoid potential convictions on two felonies after agreeing to plead no contest to a non-criminal charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger on Friday filed the proposed plea agreement, suggesting that Black plead no contest to a pair of citations and pay a $2,000 fine in exchange for having the felony counts dismissed, the newspaper reported.
A hearing is scheduled Monday morning during which Judge Bruce Schroeder could accept the plea deal, reject it or dismiss Black’s original felony counts based on his ruling during Rittenhouse’s trial that the defendant lawfully possessed a firearm as a minor, the Journal Sentinel reported.
