Kyle Rittenhouse Claims He Will Attend Texas A&M, University Says Something Different

Kyle Rittenhouse says he will be attending Texas A&M University, but the school does not appear to be on the same page.

During a podcast episode of "The Charlie Kirk Show" posted to YouTube over the weekend, Rittenhouse said, "I'm going to be going there, and it's going to be awesome."

He added, "Beautiful campus, amazing people, amazing food."

However, a university official told the Dallas Morning News on Sunday, "He has not been admitted as a student this summer or fall."

Rittenhouse previously said he was taking online classes at Arizona State University.

He made the remarks during his testimony after shooting and killing two men and wounding a third in the aftermath of protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

USA Today noted the school confirmed he enrolled as a non-degree-seeking online student.

The university later said Rittenhouse was not a student anymore.

“Our records show that he is not currently enrolled,” ASU spokesperson Jay Thorne said.

He continued, "There was no action taken by the university.”

In November 2021, Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges.

"He has a huge sense of relief for what the jury did to him today. He wishes none of this would have ever happened, but as he said when he testified, he did not start this," Rittenhouse's defense attorney Mark Richards said at the time.

He added, "To say that we're relieved would be a gross misunderstatement."

According to CBS News, Rittenhouse is preparing to file defamation lawsuits against those he claims labeled him a murderer and white supremacist.

The outlet reported Rittenhouse said Johnny Depp's legal victory over his ex-wife in a defamation case is inspiring him to file lawsuits against Mark Zuckerberg and several others.

The lawyer who represented Covington Catholic student Nicholas Sandmann is now representing Rittenhouse, as IJR reported .

The Washington Post previously settled with Sandmann after its coverage of a viral confrontation between the student and Omaha tribe elder Nathan Phillips.
