Everyone say it with me, "Luigi Mangione is an innocent man being framed by the government because they were unable to find the real culprit."

Of course that's possible, but I don't think a judge or an appeals court is likely to determine that the first violation of the judge's order takes the death penalty off the table. Judges almost always bend over backwards to protect the state. If they keep talking now, that might result in some kind of mild sanctions that somehow affect reality in some slight way, possibly.
This plus the mishandling of evidence has derailed cases before. The one that comes to mind is Weather Underground. There isn't much doubt that they blew up some monuments and were planning some more. None of them were ever prosecuted because the FBI fucked up.
I would vote not guilty no matter what if I was on his jury. Billionaires and major corporate CEOs need to live in fear for how they treat people. They kill tons of people with their callousness and greed.
It's literally self defense at this point.
Stick me on that same jury. Not guilty x2.
one word: jury nullification.
This really seems like a scenario where that’s the ideal result. Even assuming he were guilty and the prosecution were able to prove it, he should not be convicted based on the extenuating circumstances of exploitative healthcare costing needless harm and death to millions
or summary judgement.
Just knowing about this can disqualify you from being on a jury. And lying about knowing about it can get you a jail sentence.
Possession of weed can also get you a jail sentence. What's your point?
Two words
it's actually 3 words.
I count four
nah, "one" isn't a word, it's a number.
Lights?
Given the general discontent with healthcare it feels inevitable. People identify with Mangione's plight in a way they don't with the money grubbing CEO.
Random, but at this point why not claim he was trying to kill leftists, at which point Trump would forgive him?
That CEO guy was antifa
The CEO said mean things about Charlie Kirk.
Luigi shouldn't be in jail at all. He was just looking out for several million of his friends.
As completely innocent people are wont to do
Not to mention that he clearly isn't the shooter.
That was someone with very different eyebrows. The only thing we know about his appearance.
It couldn't have been him, Luigi and I were fishing that day all day long. We both wept when we heard the news.
My mother was one of the ones without proper health care and the CEO death triggered a change that put her back on health care... Now I have to deal with her longer because she won't die. A sad day truly, Luigi said so too
Death penalty for a murder of a single persons seems harsh. I’m anti death penalty 100% of the time, though.
ah I see you're still using "person" as a measurement unit instead of the more modern "net worth"
Am I the only one to find the phrase "net worth" disgusting? It should be "net wealth" or something.
No, there are at least 2 of us. Even the concept that it's somehow a useful measure to anyone else than your local tax authorities (except maybe for people running for public office) sounds a bit iffy to me.
So you are right that giving it a name that ties it to your "worth" as a person is terrible.

He should be released and compensated for the time he spent behind bars. He is innocent.
Mansions saved thousands of lives and more for future generations. Those poor people being denied health…

Nah this thread isn't about the housing crisis
How, is united healtcare bankrupt? Did they change and approve everyone? AFAIK they are just as scummy with a different CEO.
