OUTRAGEOUS! This Is No Longer America… Police Lieutenant With Cancer-Stricken Wife Is Fired From His Job For Donation To Kyle Rittenhouse Defense Fund

Norfolk, Virginia, police Lt. William Kelly was fired from his job only days after it was uncovered that he donated to a fundraiser benefitting Kyle Rittenhouse.

At the time he was fired, Kelly was only roughly 10 months from being a 20-year veteran of the department.

The Associated Press noted that Norfolk city officials said Kelly was “relieved of duty.”

This unexpected twist left Kelly scrambling to find health insurance for his cancer-stricken wife.

He also has to provide for his three children.

Kelly’s donation to the Rittenhouse fundraiser included a message:

“God Bless. Thank you for your courage. Keep your head up. You’ve done nothing wrong. Every rank-and-file police officer supports you. Don’t be discouraged by actions of the political class of law enforcement leadership.”

After being fired, Kelly told Fox News:

“I thought I was a free man in America expressing his personal opinion to somebody, giving some words of encouragement and making a simple donation.”
