Jurors in Kenosha, Wisconsin, declared Rittenhouse not guilty on all counts back in 2021. Rittenhouse would have faced a mandatory life sentence if found guilty and convicted of first-degree intentional homicide.

President Biden claimed he "didn’t watch the trial" but stands by "what the jury has concluded."

"While the verdict in Kenosha will leave many Americans feeling angry and concerned, myself included, we must acknowledge that the jury has spoken. I ran on a promise to bring Americans together, because I believe that what unites us is far greater than what divides us," Biden said in a previous statement following the verdict. "I know that we’re not going to heal our country’s wounds overnight, but I remain steadfast in my commitment to do everything in my power to ensure that every American is treated equally, with fairness and dignity, under the law."

He added that "violence and destruction of property have no place in our democracy."
