How will they convict Luigi? (hexbear.net)

Is it really possible they'll find an entire dozen people who've never been fucked over by health insurance to preside as jurors over this case?

It's my understanding that the defense and prosecutor both must agree on the selection of jurors. In such a high profile case where the defendant is clearly in the right, is it really possible they'll find the requisite 12 people who've not only been living under a rock these past couple weeks, but also have what's essentially a "neutral stupid" character alignment?

Luigi himself seems to be on this same train of thought given he turned himself in. He had several days to destroy the evidence, but instead he went to McDonalds while cosplaying as the Adjuster, carrying the gun on his person. Surely this implies he won't take a plea deal, right?

He fucked up having the gun and a confession on him (could be a plant). All the prosecution has to do is create a timeline of evidence from the six months he disappeared up until Wednesday of last week. He can also be charged for creating or having fake documents, and a host of other things.

Will it matter? He is probably going to live large with a fat commissary, if they don’t put him in solitary for the rest of his life.

There are plenty of funny outcomes like him making statements in court. Submitting denial claims by UHC into the record, and god knows what else.
