The St. Louis couple who became a national sensation last year after waving firearms at Black Lives Matter protesters marching near their home have been spotted in Kenosha, Wisc., during the Kyle Rittenhouse trial.
Fox News reported that Mark and Patricia McCloskey were parked outside of a hotel near the Kenosha County Courthouse on Monday. Mark McCloskey told the news outlet that he and his wife “feel” for 18-year-old Rittenhouse, who faces multiple charges, including first-degree intentional homicide.
“We’re just here to take in the verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse case,” said Mark McCloskey.
“We feel for Mr. Rittenhouse. We think he acted in self-defense, we think he’s been politically prosecuted, as were we. We hope the jury finds him not guilty on all counts.”
