(WATCH) Kyle Rittenhouse Announces Plans To Sue Lebron James For Defamation (VIDEO)

Kyle Rittenhouse said on Tuesday that he is planning to sue LeBron James for his social media insults.

In November, while facing murder charges in Wisconsin, James criticized Rittenhouse for sobbing on the stand during testimony. Rittenhouse was attacked by three individuals during the riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in August of 2020, but he was acquitted of murder and the court determined that he acted in self-defense.

James ripped into Rittenhouse for crying, saying, “What tears????? I didn’t see one. Man knock it off! That boy ate some lemon heads before walking into court.”

The 18-year-old Rittenhouse was overwhelmed emotionally when discussing his actions taken against the radical, violent BLM protestors.

Now, Rittenhouse is announcing that he will file a series of lawsuits against the numerous individuals of the entertainment business who branded him a murderer and assaulted his integrity during his trial.

Rittenhouse told Conservative Drew Hernandez on the Frontlines podcast that James would receive a letter from an attorney informing him that Rittenhouse is suing him for defamation.

“Anybody who defamed me, or lied about me, we’re just gonna send them a letter and then deal with them in a courtroom.,” Rittenhouse told Hernandez.

Last year, James made headlines after he tweeted a threat to white police officers by saying, “You’re Next.”

The NBA star’s warning came after Ma’Khia Bryant was shot and killed by a police officer in Columbus, Ohio, after she began assaulting people with a knife.

The tweet was subsequently deleted by James.
