"Empty point projectiles are intended to hit the creature that they're being taken shots at, suppose a deer for instance, and detonate inside that body, right?" Binger said.

Rittenhouse shook his head passed on to right and said, "No, I don't think so."

Judge Bruce Schroeder then, at that point, added and requested that Binger explain with respect to whether he signified "extend" or "detonate."

Judge Bruce Schroeder, right, reproves Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger, left, in his direct in line of addressing while interrogating Kyle Rittenhouse during the preliminary at the Kenosha County Courthouse on November 10, 2021 in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

By then, Binger reworded his inquiry and posed to Rittenhouse what "an empty point projectile would do in case it were shot… at a deer?"

Binger's accentuation on ammo came after Rittenhouse had as of now affirmed that his AR-15 was stacked with full metal coat (FMJ) slugs, as opposed to emptying focuses.
