Luigi Mangione is due in federal court for a pivotal hearing in his fight to bar the government from seeking the death penalty against him in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson
If the evidence is indeed overwhelming and procedures are following correctly then justice will be served.
In either scenario pleading guilty is a mistake:
If he did not do it then he should not be punished and fight all charges against his innocence. I hope thats a given
But if he did do it then he is really representing a cause to “fight back against the system” therefore the goal is to drag this case out and maximise news coverage to highlight that cause and possibly become a martyr. Not to admit wrong and look weak and regretful.
Judging by his reaction to fanmail, asking you all to please stop, I get the feeling Luigi doesn’t give a shit about your devotion. He did this because he thought he could walk away afterwards.
I am just trying to understand your reaction to realistic justice strategy.
I don’t believe i have expressed any opinion on the matter, it’s you who seem to be emotionally involved with this case.
If you want to know i think the whole thing is very interesting and i am curious to find out how it evolves. And when it evolves no further, i take what i learned and move on.

I wonder if you or him will feel stupid when they announce he’s getting the chair or the rope.
You know what Martyrdom is right?

You continue to seem to misunderstand how the law works
Devotion?

A lot of words just to call me a liar, lmao
Where?
You called me “emotionally involved” and then expressed that you were waiting to learn more about the case.
I did not call you a liar and i don’t think you are one.
I believe you have arrived at a rather strange perspective and strong opinions because you misunderstand the sociopolitical dynamics at play here.
