The prosecutors arguing some extremely weaselly bullshit to get around New York State’s very strong double Jeopardy laws.

Free Luigi.
"grisly death" lol what. Put the bias away, guardian.
Yeah.
His death was way less grisly than the deaths that United Health Care forces its customers to endure.
Right? Getting shot is like the regular old most American way to die. Geez, dramatic much?
Deserved a grizzly death to be honest. Light mauling, some chomping, the usual.
They realized they weren't writing about kids and decided to describe it how it is.
Luigi did nothing wrong
Getting caught was kind of a blunder, but other than that...
Did they ever find the person who snitched on him?
Wasn't it one of the McDonald's workers, who then ended up getting fired because they brought too much attention to the McDonald's?
Well if they got paid the reward then they probably don't mind not working at Mickey D's anymore.
Not only did Luigi do nothing wrong, the guy who actually did it did nothing wrong either
Those bullet wounds were clearly a preexisting condition
I think personally that Brian Thompson was asking for it based on the clothing he was wearing at the time, and the demeanor he had. It's a known fact that when a real masculine alpha male man like Luigi Mangione sees a literal slug in human form slithering around there is an instinctual need to shoot it. So I don't see why he should have such a promising life ruined over this mans decisions. Like sure, it's sad and all, and our thoughts go out to his family or whatever, but the more important thing is making sure Luigi can still get a nice paying job. Maybe he could do some community service?
A health insurance executive is a direct threat to my well-being and I have the right to stand my ground.
You are such a brave patriot. Stay strong. He might be unarmed, and you might have a fully automatic shoulder mounted machinegun, but don't let that fool you, your life is in danger.
So, what you're saying is that we shouldn't ruin a promising young man's future for just 20 seconds of action?
That sounds fair.
Sounds like someone didn't read the fine print in the social contract and is now upset because someone hurt him the way he hurt others. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, but I'm not a fucking optometrist, so I'm just going to do my best over here to be nice to my fellow humans like I have one of those... what do you call it... what is it again... Oh yeah, a conscience!
I have one of those... what do you call it... what is it again... Oh yeah, a conscience!
Unlike Brian Thompson and his ilk.
Great point.
Yep, if one of my neighbors stole a bike and the other stole a thousand houses, I wouldn't even talk about the bike guy. Brian Thompson contributed to thousands of deaths; Luigi only one... allegedly. Both are technically in the wrong, but why are we only supposed to be talking about the bike guy?
Our priorities are absurd.
How do we know Brian thompson didn't just fall on that bullet?
edit: 1 downvote? I think Brian Thompson faked his death.
I hope they find the true killer.
Sounds like he has a case of affluenza. Gotta let him off easy, right? The precedent has been set.
Thompson's grizzly death
Maybe I don't understand what that word means, but I never found anything about what I saw in that video to be even close to "grizzly."
I wouldn't use that word to describe what happened.
New York state statute maintains that “a person may not be twice prosecuted for the same offense”
Then what's the fucking problem?
Holy shit, the law field is utterly fucked.
Double jeopardy doesn’t attach until there is a final disposition in one of the actions.
They should dismiss all charges. I personally know of at least 10 people that an vouch for his whereabouts during the week of the shooting.
With the state charges gone, if he were convicted of federal charges alone then a future president could pardon him.
Murder is bad. Perhaps the most bad. Let's keep it in perspective though, it was just a greedy white money guy that got killed. They're a dime a dozen and nothing special. /s
