Breaking: Rittenhouse and Sandmann Attorney’s Twitter Account Is Locked
RedState readers may be familiar with attorney Lin Wood for his representation of former Covington Catholic high school student Nick Sandmann, whose life was turned on its head by radical leftists and their media lapdogs, after the teen’s school trip to Washington, D.C. to attend a pro-life march became national news — and not in a good way. Sandmann recently
won legal battles against several media outlets, including CNN and the
Washington Post, and was awarded an undisclosed settlement. Then just last week, Sandmann was invited to speak at the RNC, which
further irritated our media betters. You may also know Wood was the lawyer for the late, wrongly-accused and exonerated Olympic Park bombing suspect, Richard Jewell.
Wood is also the defense attorney who has taken up the case of Kyle Rittenhouse, the Illinois teen accused of killing two people and wounding a third in Kenosha, WI, during rioting in that city late last month. As my colleague Streiff
reported, supporters of Rittenhouse quickly put together a GoFundMe effort to support his defense. But the donation crowd-sourcing website pulled it down on August 26th.
Now, a lawyer who’s been helping Wood on behalf of Rittenhouse to administer a new fund called the #FightBack Foundation, has sounded the alarm on Twitter Tuesday afternoon that Wood’s account has been thrown into Twitter jail — further stifling the urgent efforts to raise money for his client’s defense.
