evidence: Is Kyle Rittenhouse's mother 38 years old in 2024? No, that's not true: Previous news reports as well as voter registration data show that she was older than that in 2021 when her son's trial began. The photo reused in posts on social media does not predate the trial. [...] In 2020, as news media covered the developing story, CBS News (archived here), the Chicago Tribune (archived here) and Fox News (archived here) reported that Kyle's mother, Wendy Rittenhouse, was 45 at the time. [...] The image reused in the post on Threads was first published online in 2021 (archived here). The elements of Wendy Rittenhouse's look seen in this photo are consistent with her appearance on November 2, 2021, when her son's legal team gave an opening statement to the jury: A different image (archived here) taken on that day captured her wearing the same dark emerald blouse and the same heart-shaped pendant, and her hair was partially tied up in a ponytail in the same fashion as in the photo reused on Threads. All of it confirms that the image in question does not predate the trial, which took place years after Wendy Rittenhouse had been 38.
