A clean, point blank shot to the head is just about as un-brutal as it gets, as far as non-consensual deaths go

It was a suicide. The video was just AI

It's actually standard procedure called "parallel investigation".

The usual jargon is "parallel construction," in case somebody wants to look it up.

The way I see this going is

Mangione wins his initial case on the issues you highlight.

Theres a big legal slapfight.

Ends up in front of the supreme court.

Trump makes a public statement about how dangerous people like Mangione need to be found guilty and executed.

Shortly after the statement, the Supreme Court abruptly declares Mangione guilty.

Trump holds a public execution within a month. Possibly profiting off it by selling tickets to his billionaire backers.

Jail? The orange turd has been pushing for execution since day 1 of the case.

because they found him illegally

Remind me again on what illegal method(s) were suspected to be used?

It's some "eye in the sky" tech the government doesn't want us to know they have yet. This is based purely on vibes.

Yeah, it was as brutal as any other shooting. Do cops shooting kids ever get described as "brutal"?

It's not like he was beaten to death with a tire iron, or denied treatment and left to a slow and agonizing death that also leaves your family in ruins.

It was just a corrective market force.

Meanwhile our president bragged on the campaign trail that he could stand in the middle of a NYC street and shoot someone and not lose any voters. We have federal agents brutally slaying innocent people on streets across the country while being treated like heroes.

He tripped.

Doesn't look remotely like the guy in that original mugshot they were flashing around.

Luigi was with me the whole time.

He was eating dinner with me in Estonia the evening that CEO died. He only flew back to the US after that.

That looks bad......if you take it completely out of context

The author just added some levity while writing about his widespread support

[...] One, who sported a satiny sash emblazoned with Luigi in green, appeared to commiserate with another supporter about not being permitted to wear the prom-queen evoking accessory.

Other accoutrements were more straightforward. One supporter wore a shirt stating: “11 minutes of missing body camera footage.”

Whathhearings?

Family Members...? What, like pet dog?

Your grammar aside heres the last killer cop I heard about: https://kstp.com/kstp-news/local-news/derek-chauvin-files-for-new-trial-citing-prosecutorial-misconduct/

It was a bullshit call, they used NSA surveillance methods to track him. I'm not normally an unhinged conspiracy theorist but this time around I'm absolutely convinced they used everything in their toolbox to track him down since he was a threat to the status quo, instead of the usual school children which the rich are more than happy to sacrifice.

Basically it's people saying:

Prove it

Because the government cant/won't say how they are so sure it's him

Couple that with how the wealthy never face consequences in our justice system due to their ability to pay money to lawyers.

And the fact that people want this to be decided by the letter of the law isn't extreme by any means, it's literally the point of law. And why people are (rightfully) outraged that they're trying to include terrorism charges.

It's just the cops fucked up so much, they're not going to be able to legally prove anything.

It's OJ all over again

sounds like he really did it but very well could get off on a technicality

This is a suppression motion for unlawful search and seizure. To call this man's 4th amendment rights a "technicality" is some Law and Order copaganda bullshit.

These suppression motions are already very difficult to win. Mr. Mangione will have to show not only that his rights were violated, but also that the cops would not have found the evidence through a different, legal means. So if he does win, it will not be "on a technicality." It's just the system ensuring that everyone's constitutional rights are respected.

In addition to some alleged incongruity of the evidence, I think a lot of people actually think he did it but they want him to get away with it/don't think what he did was wrong, and throwing mud in the water is a way to show support for him, albeit a somewhat disingenuous one.

People are questioning it because the initial CCTV pictures of the murderer do not match Mangione's features. They look similar enough for it to be pulled in as evidence - and further supported by the items confiscated from him during his arrest, but then again people are questioning the legitimacy of those things too - but the differences are visible enough for even a mid tier lawyer to argue that the CCTV recording is not of their client.

Part of it is that people are idiots and think if they keep saying "He didn't do it, wink wink" it will mean anything (other than internet points (on a site that doesn't track them...)).

Personally? I... don't know if the world is a better place with Luigi Mangione out on the streets (seriously... actually read up on him) but I also have zero qualms with someone not being punished for offing a monster.

But that isn't what is going to happen here. Some of the evidence will likely get thrown out. But there is also a LOT more evidence that we, the public, don't know about. For example, you can very much bet that a MUCH more rigorous timeline, supported by Flock(TM) camera footage, of him in NYC has been documented. That combined with the actual footage of him (allegedly) doing it and the witnesses like the taxi driver (?) and hotel clerk?

He will probably escape some of the charges. He will not be walking free. And... he'll probably get suicide'd in his cell within a year of being made an example of why you don't kill the oligarchs.

He 100% did it, they even found the files to print his gun mod on his computer. He had no Allibi and travelled three states via bus with nothing but a bag full of $20,000.

He did it. He did that.

Buncha murder cultists and people who want to spread distrust in the law and push for some fantasy-like revolution are in here to stroke his fictional dick.

Who did he defend?
