John Pierce, attorney for the Illinois teen, has said he fears for his client’s safety if sent to an adult lockup.

John Pierce, an attorney for Kyle Rittenhouse, told an Illinois Judge Friday he plans to challenge efforts to send the teen back to Wisconsin where he faces felony homicide charges as an adult, with the attorney promising to introduce complex legal arguments that haven't been heard in the U.S. “for some time.

Pierce did not raise those issues Friday but, when the judge asked to set the next hearing date, Pierce responded: “These are going to be involving issues of some complexity that frankly have not arisen in the country for some time, so there’s going to be a lot of legal research involved in this,” adding: “I’d like to have 30 days but we’ll take whatever we can get.”

Rittenhouse did not speak during the brief Zoom hearing, and sat almost motionless wearing a dark grey sweatshirt and a light grey mask. The judge allowed Pierce until October 9 to file initial paper work for his “habeas corpus” motion which will begin what could be a protracted legal battle. Video widely circulated on social media shows the gunfire that erupted during protests over the police shooting of Jacob Blake, then shows Rittenhouse walking with his hand up toward law enforcement officers from several jurisdictions, who do not take him into custody, allowing him to return to his home in Illinois, setting the stage for the extradition case.
