There were 24,849 homicides in 2022.
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/homicide.htm
Almost none of them, if any, likely required a nationwide manhunt.
Not one of them required an escort of 30 police officers plus a helicopter to the courtroom.
As far as I can tell, none of them were charged with terrorism.
And now he's getting as biased a judge as he could possibly get.
If we're going to start charging murderers with terrorism, let's start with the cops.
I guess conflicts of interest just aren't a thing anymore.
Nothing to be avoided anymore. Something to seek out.
Country wide outage at the corruption involved with the health insurance
Health insurance industry: we can make it worse
outrage*
Also, not an insurance company. He worked for Pfizer.
Pfizer is a med company. They negotiate with insurance. They work together to fuck us over.
I knew they were going to try him in a kangaroo court, I just didn't think they'd be this obvious about it.
The justice system probably assigned the judge randomly. It's just finding a judge without wealth is impossible ... which in and of itself is a problem.
you people clearly don't know what you are talking about. "conflict of interest" only happens if it conflicts the interests of billionaires
That’s definitely a conflict of interest.
I'm sure the judge will recuse themselves to avoid any appearance of impropriety... ^/s^
As Clarence Thomas has proved.
(Sack of shit.)
As judges always do…
Interesting, interesting, interesting, interesting.
I need the bootlickers to show up and tell me it's just coincidence.
The whole damn thing is a show. They are terrified. The book they usually play by isn't working. What will happen? The amount of support Luigi has is astounding. It's even a topic I tested the waters with at work and these people I work with make a decent living.
America is waking up. I feel it.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
That's literally what it's taken in the past. It took the fear of communism to really get unionization accepted in the US. In other eras it's taken the threat of invasion by external powers.
I genuinely think that they'll have a hard time finding an impartial jury.... I think that at this point, pretty much anyone who doesn't live under a rock has heard of him and has an opinion on whether he should be found guilty.
Regardless of which way you fall on that particular topic, you're biased, and that would exclude you from serving on the jury.
I thought the same thing about the Trump trial, but they legitimately turned over rocks and found the most oblivious Americans living under them. There are evidently tons of people out there living in their own little bubble, completely untethered from the news media or even just casual conversations with strangers and probably have no idea who Luigi is right now. The news might not be able to reach them, but a jury summons from the state can, and the prosecution is going to hunt for these individuals specifically.
This should be an automatic forced recusal.
But it wont be, because the billionaires and CEOs are scared, and don't care about the appearance of propriety. They want Luigi sacrificed on an altar to instill fear and intimidation into those that might follow his example.
Pretty sure Luigi's lawyer can (and will?) push for a different judge. I know the justice system in the US sucks but if you don't even give a chance to the rules it'll never be able to do anything right
the CEOs control the DOJ.
Only way hes getting a fair trial is if the jury is made up of people who have pointlessly lost loved ones not to disease, but to health insurance companies saying treating the disease was too costly and denying it.
Which wont happen. They won;t let anyone that has anything even remotely negative about health insurance or millionaires become a juror
This judge needs to recuse themselves from the case.
Remember remember!
The 4th of December
A CEO dies all alone;
On the street he was lain,
cold, pale and in pain,
thousands of deaths that he own.
The decisions he'd struck,
Layers removed from the slaughter,
Were a shareholder's treat,
Your dead mother or daughter.
Those investors all wait, on that cold winter morn,
Still unawares of profit potential they'd mourn,
Poking at hotel breakfast, bored looks on their face
As was Brian's when he denied and delayed at great pace
Endless growth, deposed, on behalf of us all
Luigi didn't do it, we were hiking in Nepal.
This is the sort of thing judges are supposed to recuse themselves over.
Surely she’ll do the right thing and recuse herself from the case.
She won't, and don't call her Shirley!
I would think it might be excusable if this were a straight-up murder charge, which is mostly facts and evidence based. However, if they're charging him with terrorism, which is much more subjective, doesn't that make this a serious conflict of interest?
No. It's inexcusable. Even if he pooped on her lawn she should have no right to be legally judging him.
Justice for Luigi is going to sail away with Judge parker at the helm.
Second corroborating article: https://www.yahoo.com/news/luigi-mangione-judge-married-former-211332729.html
I’m going to nitpick here. The main reference for this Yahoo/daily Beast article is OP. That’s not corroborating.
Say what you can about communism, but you clearly see that capitalism is so much worse.
lol and I say this as someone who grew up in Soviet occupied eastern europe. Trust me, there are very few systems worse than communism, well at least, that version of it.
