MADISON – State Representative Robyn Vining (D-Wauwatosa) issued the following statement regarding the jury’s verdict of not guilty on all counts in the Rittenhouse trial:

“My thoughts are with the families and loved ones of Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum, and with Gaige Grosskreutz, in the aftermath of this jury decision. I am thinking of the community of Kenosha as it looks to heal from these terrible tragedies. 

“I am deeply troubled by the lack of accountability in this verdict. We must continue to work towards justice and healing in Wisconsin, which includes the fight against systemic racism, and against gun violence that is so dangerous for our communities.”

Rep. Vining represents the 14th Assembly District, which includes parts of Brookfield, Wauwatosa, and Milwaukee. For more information, visit Rep. Vining’s website here.
