Rittenhouse was accused of six serious counts and one offense of breaking curfew. The most serious charge against Rittenhouse was first-degree intentional homicide. 

The poll also found 36 percent of respondents thought the coverage was fair, including 14 percent who said it was “very fair.” Eighteen percent said they weren’t sure. 

Only 27 percent of Republicans thought the trial was fair, while 54 percent of Democrats believe it was fair.
