- Kyle Rittenhouse praised the jury's decision in a teased clip of a Fox News documentary.
- "I believe they came to the correct verdict," Rittenhouse said.
- On Friday, Rittenhouse was acquired of all charges related to a fatal 2020 shooting.
Kyle Rittenhouse said the jury "reached the correct verdict" after he was acquitted of all charges relating to the fatal shooting of two men in Kenosha, Wisconsin last year.
"The jury reached the correct verdict. Self-defense is not illegal, and I believe they came to the correct verdict," Rittenhouse said in a Fox News documentary. "I'm glad that everything went well. It's been a rough journey, but we made it through it. We made it through the hard part."

Tucker Carlson teased a clip of the documentary on Friday, adding that a team has been following Rittenhouse leading up to and during the trial.
"They've been there for days putting together an installment of our Tucker Carlson original series on this case, and they captured Kyle Rittenhouse's first moments outside the court today after being acquitted," Carlson said on his show.
Over melancholy violin music playing in the background, Rittenhouse said in the documentary clip that he dreams about what happened on the night that he fatally shot two men and injured a third "every single night."
"It's quite scary actually because the dreams feel so real, and they're not the same at all. They're all different. They're the different scenarios that run through your head during the day, like, what could have happened. I'm alive, but what could have happened? What if I wasn't alive? Or what if I did let Mr. Rosenbaum steal my gun?"
Rittenhouse plead not guilty and was acquitted of the five charges against him stemming from when he fatally shot Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber and injured Gaige Grosskreutz. Rittenhouse said he acted in self-defense after the men attacked him.
"It's bad, but almost every outcome is either me getting seriously injured or hurt or dead," Rittenhouse said in the documentary. "Those are just the dreams I have on a daily basis."
Rittenhouse's attorney, Mike Richards, said he did not approve of the film crew, Insider's Sarah Al-Arshani reported.
"I did not approve of that. I threw them out of the room several times," Richards told CNN's Chris Cuomo. "I don't think a film crew is appropriate for something like this, but the people who were raising the money to pay for the experts and to pay for the attorneys were trying to raise money, and that was part of it. So I think, I don't want to say an evil but a definite distraction was part of it. I didn't approve of it but I'm not always the boss."
