Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

MODERATORS
The most important aspect of this that I think most people are missing is that they are specifically trying to bias the public into thinking he definitely did it. There is no "allegedly" in how they've treated him, they are actually using the positive public sentiment about what he did to continue to build the idea that it was definitely him and we don't need to go to court to prove it. The public loving Mangione and believing he definitely did it is actually in many ways beneficial to their case. It helps solidify the idea in the general public eye that "he did it" before any court case has looked at the facts.
Innocent until proven guilty, but if you say anything about that they’ll probably nix you from the jury pool so if you get selected just act dumb
My wifes an attorney and has "guilty until proveb innocent" real big on her. Its so f'd up
I hope you didn't pay that tattooist.
Hey, no regerts.
Not even... Like, one letter?
If you were a juror you would have to consider the facts of the case though for sure 👀
That's why making sure potential jurors are educated on jury nullification, how it works, and how to not be prematurely dismissed as a juror is so important.
Unfortunately I don’t know what that is and I’m not really a big fan of learning new things
Basically it means that you can return whatever verdict you want as long as you don't say something stupid like "I don't actually believe this by the way."
I don’t really believe in that type of stuff 👀
You don't believe in the public being part of the decision making about which laws are just? That's part of democracy.
Lol, don't feed the troll, matey.
I know nothing about this case, they should choose me 👀
They choose a pool of jurors randomly. You don't need to pretend to be uninformed until you're in the room (unless you comment under your real name), where they select the actual jurors after each side has excluded some
Spot on.
He didn't do it.
And if he did, god bless that real patriot.
He who saves his country has committed no crime.
