Here's a nice little update.

A man who was shot by Kyle Rittenhouse wants to change his name after receiving death threats for two years

Gaige Grosskreutz was shot by Kyle Rittenhouse during a 2020 protest in Wisconsin.
Grosskreutz this week filed a secret petition to change his legal name.
Rittenhouse was acquitted of homicide after fatally shooting two people and injuring Grosskreutz.
A man who was shot by Kyle Rittenhouse during a 2020 protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin, wants to change his name after enduring death threats for two years.

Gaige Grosskreutz filed a secret petition to change his legal name on Tuesday, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

In a statement made through his lawyer, Grosskreutz said: "Yes, after two years of death threats from right-wing lunatics I made the difficult decision to change my name for the protection of me and my family."

Grosskreutz told CNN in September of 2020 that he and his family members * including his 65-year-old grandmother * were receiving death threats from supporters of Rittenhouse.

"But the real story here isn't that I am seeking to change my name, but that a process that is supposed to protect and shield those in danger was undermined and sealed information was released to the right-wing media within hours of my filing," the statement continued.

He doesn't know the girl
He's never been in the same car as the girl.
It isn't meant to be taken seriously.

Is that similar to testifying before Congress Jan 6 committee that Trump tried to take over the limousine and you weren't there and never saw it?

In PA it has to be advertised in public accessed publications like newspapers or magazines and you have to get at least three background checks. One of the checks is done on the same day just before you enter the courtroom. I'm sure Wisconsin has laws similar about advertising in the paper making it simple to find out what he's changing his name to. It's public information and it should be.

Thanks. And the guy who fired the first shot, which started the fireworks but was given immunity for his testimony was just in the news recently. I forget what he did but it looks like he's going to jail this go-round.
