The whole point is the defense doesn't have to prove their plea, they just make said plea and it's up to the prosecution to prove why it's not self-defense. The defense does not have to prove it is. Maybe some states do it different and they attach to it to the plea, but to my knowledge you dont "plead self-defense" to start. You plead not guilty and then show it was self-defense. Rittenhouse has followed this at least. --- "First thing that crosses my mind: I didn't get any GameFAQs Karma yesterday."
