The family of Kenosha killer Kyle Rittenhouse claim he has abandoned them and left them facing eviction while he cashes in on his notoriety.
The 21-year-old shot to infamy in 2020 after gunning down three men with an AR-15 style rifle during unrest following a Black Lives Matter demonstration in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
Two of the men died but a jury cleared him of murder the following year after concluding that he acted in self-defense.
He has become an icon of the right-wing media circuit, appearing at conferences and meeting Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, but his sister Faith has launched a Gofundme appeal to save her and mom Wendy, 49, from homelessness citing her ‘brother’s unwillingness to provide or contribute to our family’.
‘Our family has been through unimaginable hardships, and now we find ourselves on the brink of losing everything,’ she wrote.
