Prosecutors say Luigi Mangione, accused of killing the CEO of UnitedHealthcare on a Manhattan sidewalk, has inspired others to embrace violence over reasoned debate.
If I’m on the jury, I haven’t seen ANYTHING that directly ties him to this shooting that wasn’t badly compromised by the cops. This is almost surely an acquittal or a hung jury.
My theory is that they know this, so what they will do is pull a Casey Anthony, whose case shared a similar situation of an extremely poor investigation that was almost certainly going to lead to an acquittal. They will slow walk the investigation and the trial for as long as legally possible, putting weeks and months between motions, and keep him in prison for as long as possible, because that will be the only time he will serve. Casey Anthony was found Not Guilty, but she still served over three years in prison.
Luigi may be ultimately released, but he will still sit in jail for several years of his life.
yea, his trial doesnt start until early next year, they are hoping people would forget luigi by then, and the distraction of the midterms, so they can do what they want with the courts.
on a side note, this is the reason people dont want to do jury duty
