Rittenhouse is charged with killing two people and wounding a third in Kenosha in August 2020. Throughout the trial, the defense has argued that his actions were in self-defense. Wisconsin’s self-defense law permits a person to use deadly force if “necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm.” The jury must determine whether Rittenhouse thought he was in danger and if his shooting was justified. The high-definition drone video shows Rottenbaum following Rittenhouse and then the 17-year-old wheeling around and shooting him at close range....

Power 90 beachbody.com $59.85 Pros: “Solid sweat!” (cardio) and “sculpt!” (weight training) routines led by the likable Tony Horton. Cons: The cardio routine’s series of intense “power yoga” moves require proper body position, virtually impossible for anyone lacking prior yoga training. The Firm firmdirect.com $89.95 Pros: For some women, the we’re-all-well-toned- sisters vibe will be comforting. Cons: For some women, the we’re-all-well-toned- sisters vibe will be sickening.

The statement came in response to a query Friday in the department’s #AskAGBarr question-and-answer session on Twitter. User @CatherineDarsey, a self-described Christian and constitutional conservative, had asked about Barr’s plans to safeguard “the Constitutional Rights of Citizens that are currently being impeded by state and city elected officials.” The attorney general had previously announced his intention to seek out state-level COVID-19 restrictions that may be encroaching on constitutional protections. In a memorandum to U....

The Azerbaijan-Armenia conflict offers one of the most frustrating cases of “bothsidesism” on display in the world. Azerbaijan attacks, and then carries out the sleight-of-hand immortalized by the X-Files TV show: deceive, inveigle, and obfuscate. The media, thin on the ground, lazily reports that clashes “erupted,” and the sides blamed each other; the implication is of faintly ridiculous squabbling tribes, neither of which could possibly be blameless. Luckily, in this case French and U....

“Lats can be pretty difficult,” Verlander said. “Talking with doctors and looking at the scans, it’s definitely not worst-case scenario. Best-case scenario would be nothing. It’s probably somewhere in the middle of that. I don’t think any injury would be considered positive, but when you’ve got a bunch of things running through your head and having dealt with it before and having it probably be more serious then, I guess it’s positive to hear it’s not quite that bad....

The Netherlands international has been strongly linked with Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain but reports suggest the Italian champions are close to finalising a deal that will earn the 19-year-old €12million per year for the next five years. Lippi, who guided Juventus to five Scudetti and the Champions League during two trophy-laden spells as head coach, said De Ligt’s performances for Ajax over the last three years have put him on course to emulate legendary Italian defenders like Alessandro Nesta, Franco Baresi and Paolo Maldini if he opts to play in Serie A....

There were not many chances created in the first half, with both teams heading into the break with little to show for their efforts. Juventus broke the deadlock in the second half, inching ahead thanks to Mario Mandzukić with Cristiano Ronaldo providing the cross from the edge of the box. The Croatian then had the easiest of tasks to tap the ball in. Valencia later thought they had an equalizer from a freekick but it was correctly ruled out as a result of a handball....

After a disappointing home display on matchday three, the Red Devils needed a response and did so without Romelu Lukaku - left at home in Manchester after sustaining a muscle injury. It seemed poetic that Cristiano Ronaldo would be the man to settle the two sides, having broken the deadlock after 65 minutes. However, the hosts’ lack of a clinical edge ultimately came back to haunt them late on. With all of that in mind, who flourished while others struggled in a crunch group stage clash?...

The Serie A champions have already reached an agreement with the Poland international over a five-year deal worth €4 million per season, but they have yet to agree terms with Arsenal. Juventus are confident of landing the 27-year-old in the days to come, though, with Arsenal’s £13m (€14.7m) pricetag unlikely to cause any major obstacles. Neymar: I could join Man Utd…or Eibar!

Juventus has no intention of taking Kingsley Coman back if Bayern Munich declines to make the winger’s loan deal permanent, sources tell Goal. WATCH: Valencia’s amazing escape The 20-year-old joined Bayern from Juve on a two-year loan for €7 million ($7.8M) in 2015, and an option was inserted in the transfer that enables the German giants to sign the Frenchman permanently for a further €21 million by April 30, 2017....

According to La Gazetta dello Sport, Juventus are desperate to sign Locatelli from Sassuolo this summer. The Bianconeri have had an opening bid of €25 million rejected by Sassuolo. The Neroverdi are believed to be demanding a fee in the region of €40 million for Manuel Locatelli and rumors suggest Juventus have returned with a new offer for the Saussolo midfielder. The Italian giants are reportedly willing to offer a player-plus-cash deal which would see Sassuolo receive €30 million and their choice of Juventus youngsters Nicolo Rovella, Radu Dragusin or Nicolo Fagiolo....

The Cavs slipped 2-0 behind in the series with a 107-94 defeat in Boston, where Smith’s fourth-quarter clash with Horford and Smart was a major flashpoint. Smith pushed an airborne Horford in the lane and drew a flagrant. Smart reacted angrily at the time and was still irked when he faced reporters afterwards. “You take two hands to the back, it’s a dirty shot,” he told a news conference. “You can’t allow that to keep happening....

3B District Court went viral just last week, May 11, after a defendant entered the live-streamed court hearing under the name “Buttf*****3000.” The clip was subsequently posted on various social media platforms by entertained viewers. The name mishap was the second time the court’s live-stream had gone viral, after a March hearing showed an assault suspect in the same room as the victim and witness, which is explicitly not allowed....

“The State of Wisconsin’s Legislature and governor are not willing to step up and say there’s a public health crisis and make it absolutely clear that we should not be allowing poll workers and voters to congregate on April 7,” U.S. District Judge William Conley said, closing a four-hour hearing. Conley, who said he didn’t have the power to order an election delay, is considering amending voting rules to mitigate the risk of coronavirus spreading among citizens who decide to head to the polls....

The conservative television host and former New York State judge made the comments during the network’s 25th anniversary on Tucker Carlson Tonight. Both expressed that while they initially didn’t think Fox News would be successful, it has thrived because of leadership that allows its hosts to speak. As Pirro and Carlson were discussing the “courage” of Fox News for not giving in to cancel culture and remaining on the air, Carlson said the network’s hosts are the only ones in the media saying what they really think....

Carroo was charged with slamming a woman to the ground outside the team’s training center after a loss last month and has pleaded not guilty to simple assault. He and the alleged victim signed a consent order Tuesday saying that they will have no contact with each other. According to NorthJersey.com, all parties plan to appear in Piscataway municipal court Tuesday afternoon in an attempt to get the assault charges against Carroo dropped....

“There will likely not be enough to compensate everyone for what their claims may be,” Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Michael Hanzman said. Hanzman also warned attorneys that any claims put forward should be complete and ironclad. “I’m not interested in ‘hail Mary’ claims.” The claims for all tenants are likely to be consolidated into a single class action lawsuit that will be filed in mid-August.

Smith-Schuster, the youngest player in the NFL (he won’t turn 21 until Nov. 22), had his biggest game of his rookie season (seven catches, 193 yards, one TD) at the ideal time Sunday night. His 97-yard scoring catch-and-run from Ben Roethlisberger in the third quarter broke Pittsburgh out of a field-goal fest in Detroit. He then helped clinch the 20-15 win over the Lions with a 4-yard catch on a shovel pass for a first down in the final minute....
