      Why him particulary? Countless persons are in the same situation without having their legal defense crowdfunded.

            Minimizing the situation, how many people are accused killing healthcare ceos in this group you spoke about?

    I don’t understand why people are mobilizing for him. Maybe he will be found guilty of be wrongly acquitted, both possible case where this crowdfunding would be dirty money.

    The People know a bad faith prosecution when they see it and are willing to pay what they can to help.

      Most of the people supporting him are convinced he’s guilty, but think that his murder makes him a hero.

        I don’t think he’s guilty. The evidence is tampered, improperly collected, and flimsy. There is “reasonable” doubt, not the kind of evidence to lock someone up over. The way he was paraded around made it clear he’s just some random dude. You might find me with manifesto too lol, I also hate rich CEOs. Like half the country does.

        Considering all the details that have come to light I genuinely don’t believe beyond a shadow of a doubt he’s guilty, since they want to kill him they need to convince beyond a shadow of a doubt. That said, personally? I don’t care if he did it or not, if he did, good, if he didn’t I’m glad who ever did do it got away, presuming Luigi doesn’t die for it

      TBH I’d rather donate to the prosecution at this point. Leaves a bad feeling in the mouth when some rich boy murderer gets better chances just because he’s got an online following, I assume this is how people felt about OJ Simpson.

        the fact that he has money is irrelevant to people’s feelings about him

        and… better chances? are you fucking joking? the prosecution is asking for the death penalty for (allegedly) killing 1 dude

        even if he did it, that’s not justice - that’s making an example out of him… that’s retribution that far outweighs the crime

          It would be rare for a first degree murder, categorized by premeditation, planning, and afterthought, to not pursue the death penalty. Luigi is pleading innocent despite being caught fleeing with a gun and $20,000 cash to live off of while on the run.

          The people making examples of him are the ones pushing him as some sort of saint and martyr to stoke violence and lawlessness specifically in the west.

            He wasn’t caught with a gun. A cop searched his bag at the scene, took it to the station, “found” a gun in the front pocket there, and then turned it in as evidence.

              So then you’re offering the alternative theory that the local cops in Altoona Pennsylvania had $20,000, a handwritten manifesto note signed by Luigi Mangione, and the murder weapon to plant?

                  You just sent me 600+ words of pure nothing, maybe try to use your own thoughts for a change?

                  Warrantless searches are illegal in Pennsylvania for homes and vehicles, they’re expected to search the suspects person during an arrest. The Altoona local police don’t have any skin off their teeth if an FBI manhunt turns up empty. Yes, he did have a ton of convenient evidence, because he had been fleeing the area of the crime scene for several days without rest. Something pretty unusual among innocent people, imo.

          No point in arguing with someone who comes to Lemmy to support the establishment. Downvote and move on

            Being against Luigi doesn’t support the establishment.

            Being for Luigi doesn’t oppose it.

                If Luigi wanted to oppose the establishment he would have shot one of the lawmakers who create and protect the broken healthcare system instead of some random goon operating in it.

                  But he’s innocent until proven guilty

                  The bad faith prosecution is proof they don’t care.

                  They arrested a patsy.

    That’s not counting his family fortune, either. Must be nice being born into riches, getting a nice degree and cushy job, all just to throw it away.

    I can’t help but think that many of the people who gave money are convinced he’s guilty, but think that the CEO deserved to be killed.

          If they had a case, they would have to cheat so blatantly.

          • The made up snich.
          • The prosecutor withholding evidence.
          • The media spectacle to taint potential jurors.
          • The officer turning on their body cam on after handling the backpack for a few minutes and then “finding” the gun and manifesto.

          What?? An attorney’s job is to convince others of your client’s innocence, not think of anyone’s guilt. Anyone can think he’s guily or innocent.

      If a man kills a serial killer in the middle of a spree, is he a murderer or a hero?
