Sandmann Lawyer Joins Rittenhouse’s Legal Team

The first thing we all thought after Kyle Rittenhouse was found not guilty of killing two people in Kenosha was, “THANK GOD.” The second thing was, “Make those mfs in the media pay.”

After months of relative silence, Rittenhouse has finally opened up on his plans to hold people accountable.

I have a new announcement coming soon about my defamation cases, keep an eye on Fox News and https://t.co/ZihybAjj7N for more this week.

Johnny Depp trial is just fueling me, you can fight back against the lies in the media, and you should!

I’m not a lawyer, but it seems to me Rittenhouse has at least a billion airtight defamation cases to make, but even with airtight allegations, it makes sense to have the best of the best in your corner, which is probably what Rittenhouse was thinking when he brought on Todd McMurtry to his legal team.

You may not recognize him by name, but you surely remember the millions of dollars McMurtry won for Nick Sandmann. The lawyer announced his position on the Rittenhouse legal team through an interview with Fox News, disclosing plans for “probably 10 to 15 solid” cases against “large defendants,” including Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

“Let’s just use for an example what Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg said about [Rittenhouse]. They said that he was involved in a mass murder incident. This was not a mass murder incident. It was clearly factually false.”

“To call somebody a mass murderer is seriously defamatory. And then to use the power of social media to basically … censor any views that would take opposition to that mass murderer statement is a serious effort to destroy his character. And it was seriously mistaken and seriously defamatory.”

McMurtry was able to win possibly hundreds of millions of dollars from news giants like NBC, CNN, and Washington Post in a case that, in my humble opinion, wasn’t even half as egregious as the things people– including Joe Biden– said about Kyle Rittenhouse. We don’t know yet whom his team will hit with defamation lawsuits or how much they’ll ask for, but we know it won’t be small potatoes. Facebook in particular is already dealing with lawsuits from John Stossel and Steven Crowder, and McMurtry doesn’t seem like he’s planning to pull any punches.

If I were Zuckerberg, I’d be scared.
