What is going on with Luigi Mangione?
(lemmy.zip)
This story seems to have faded in the wake of events ad nauseam. We are all aware of Senor Luigi. However, most folks can’t recall the full name of the guy that allegedly Luigi gunned down. Mission accomplished.
Takes a while to get a jury together. The legal system is very slow, even in easy cases; and trying to find an unbiased jury makes it even harder.
There will be no truly unbiased jury, this is way too public and polarizing
Fucking CB radio featured Luigi and that's an impenetrable subculture
CB radio - like “breaker breaker 1 9”?
Damn. We are in CB culture again? My Dad did some Outlaw trucking in the 70’s when Teamsters were on strike. No specifics but CB’s & Trucker culture evaded a ton of trophies for all the “Old Smokies”.
they will go through a ton of jurors before they will seat one. they needs one dumb enough to be swayed easily by either side. both the defendant and prosecutors are only limited to amount of jurors that strike from a group during jury summons, so they are looking at biases for him and remove them. what they really want is the ones that dont read the news much, or retireers.
This must be a taxing and mentally draining process for all the grown ups in the room.
apparently they take an ENORMOUS amount of time choosing jurors, thats why people hate jury duty. its worst if its grand juries.
retirees? like the ones that spend half their time in a hospital room? paying 300$ for bandaids?
i assume those in white collar work that retire earlier than 65, also govt employees are more likely to get selected.
I know old people that defend healthcare companies unfortunately. "Well this one isn't nearly as bad as the others". Give me a break.
