Kenosha County Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder and Hollywood actor and moviemaker Ricky Schroeder are not related and do not have any blood ties. Surprisingly, both men have never crossed paths in life.
The speculation about their possible family ties started making the rounds when people noticed that Ricky and Bruce shared the same last name. However, that happens to be the only thing both men have in common.
Are Judge Bruce Schroeder and Actor Ricky Schroeder Related?
The fact that Judge Bruce Schroeder and Ricky Schroeder were found to be bearing the same last names raised speculations that the two might be related. However, internet searches have revealed that Bruce and Ricky have no family ties.
Their last names have been declared a coincidence, and there is the fact that both men have German ancestry, according to their Wiki pages. Perhaps, that may be the origin of their last names, and that’s the similarities between the two men born in different parts of the United States.
With that said, no one has ever spotted Bruce and Ricky together, and have never crossed paths with each other to date. The closest that Ricky has ever come to Judge Bruce Schroeder was when he weighed in on the Kyle Rittenhouse case, which Bruce presided over.
According to reports, the American actor vehemently condemned the attempt of the media and the general public to destroy the life of young Kyle. At the end of the day, Ricky contributed to Kyle’s $2-million bail bond to the tune of hundreds of dollars to show how upset he was that the media and the public were trying him prematurely.
Either Judge Bruce Schroeder is related to Kyle Rittenhouse or he’s just a good old fashioned klansman wearing the wrong color robe.
