Kyle Rittenhouse's mother, Wendy Rittenhouse, is expected to join Fox News host Sean Hannity for an interview on Thursday.

The network announced on Thursday that the accused killer's mom would make an appearance on Hannity's evening broadcast. Rittenhouse allegedly shot two people to death and wounded a third person during protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin last year. He has testified that he was at the protest to provide medical aid.

"Wendy Rittenhouse, Kyle's mother, will join Hannity tonight live at 9:00 p.m. for her first television interview since Kyle's trial began," Fox News host Todd Pirro revealed on Thursday morning.

Fox News has given favorable coverage to Rittenhouse. One guest on Thursday suggested that the trial was an example of "child abuse."
