The claim of provocation – specifically, that Rittenhouse pointed his rifle at others, provoking Joseph Rosenbaum to chase him across a parking lot – is not supported by any other evidence but this drone video.  Without the video, there is no act of provocation, and the prosecution would have the task of attacking Rittenhouse’s claims of self-defense directly.  Assistant District Attorney James Kraus (aka "lunchbox") had a laundry list of excuses for why the defense received only a lower-resolution, smaller file size, with a different file name including blaming Assistant DA Binger and the detectives.  The judge was unconvinced by these excuses and suggested the possibility of putting the prosecution on the witness stand themselves to testify under oath as to why the defense did not receive the proper video before it was presented to the jury.

A photo of ADA Kraus’ laptop screen being projected onto the large 4k TV screen in the courtroom showed the presence of a software app named Handbrake, a program used to generate low-definition versions of high-definition videos.  Apparently, the provision of the low-resolution video to the defense was not an accident at all, but rather an intentional act of the prosecution.<ref>https://youtu.be/eHOixtPHDVQ</ref>  If so, it would constitute prosecutorial misconduct sufficiently grievous to not only warrant a mistrial with prejudice but certainly misconduct, perhaps even malicious prosecution charges.<ref>https://legalinsurrection.com/2021/11/rittenhouse-trial-mayhem-courtoom-fights-over-videos-and-mistrial-as-jury-deliberates/</ref>
