The System is Broken: Jacob Blake's Dad & Uncle on Kyle Rittenhouse Acquittal for Vigilante Killings

Protests erupted nationwide after a jury in Kenosha, Wisconsin, acquitted Kyle Rittenhouse on all five counts for fatally shooting two people and wounding a third last year during protests sparked by the police shooting that left Jacob Blake paralyzed. Kyle Rittenhouse claimed he acted in self-defense when he killed Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum with an AR-15-style rifle. The jury's decision was announced Friday afternoon after about 26 hours of deliberations. To discuss the significance of their verdict, we speak with Jacob Blake Sr. and Justin Blake, the father and uncle of Jacob Blake, who protested outside the trial of Rittenhouse everyday. This is a tragedy and a slap in the face to all the families that are involved. It made a mockery of the judicial system," says Justin Blake. The system of justice works if I look like Kyle Rittenhouse. It does not work if I look like Jacob Blake," says Jacob Blake Sr. The Blakes say their family had predicted a not guilty outcome. Jacob Blake Sr. also responds to the Biden's administration's decision to not seek federal charges against the police officer who shot his son.
