Did Kyle Rittenhouse Admit to a Straw Purchase?

According to Kyle The Answer to this is no. Here is the reason.

Kyle gifted the money to Dominic Black to Purchase the firearm for himself then do a private sale one Kyle had turned 18.

According to Kenoshanews 

The criminal case against the 19-year-old who allegedly made the straw purchase that provided Kyle Rittenhouse his gun has been put on hold until after the Rittenhouse trial.

Dominick Black, who now lives in Racine according to court records, is charged with two counts of intentionally giving a AR-15 to a person under 18 causing death.

According to court documents, Rittenhouse allegedly gave cash to Black — who was dating Rittenhouse’s sister — to purchase an AR-15 style rifle for Rittenhouse from a Wisconsin hardware store because Rittenhouse was underage.

(Now according to the statement Kyle made he gifted the money and bought Dominic a firearm that would later be gifted to him. This makes it clear that Kyle did not ask Black to buy a firearm FOR him only to hold it for him until he was of age.)

Court documents allege Rittenhouse retrieved the gun from Black’s stepfather’s house in Kenosha on Aug. 25, 2020, and that Rittenhouse and Black went together, armed, to protests in downtown Kenosha that followed the Jacob Blake shooting. Later that night, Rittenhouse shot three men, killing two, in what he and his supporters say was an act of self defense. Rittenhouse is charged with homicide.
