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.

Brian Thompson obviously killed himself.

Release the Thompson files!

And by that I mean: Promise to release the files for years and then decide no one should be prosecuted and say "why is everyone still talking about that guy?"

The guy that was gunned down by someone was Evil Healthcare Prick.

Still the only one in the US with balls it seems.
The rest is still busy with interpretative dance, making placards to carry around while having a stroll and determined to vote harder next time.

That's the guy responsible for fixing most of the bugs in civ VI. And there is evidence he did that.

He's also been baselessly accused of shooting some twat. So the federal prosecution is waiting for people to forget about him so they can drag him through a kangaroo court and murder him for political reasons.

We need more people like Luigi. I mean both people who can fix bugs in Civ VII and people who can fix bugs in american healthcare system.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 18 hours ago

I'd have thought they'd want him dead for all to see. See what happens when you touch an untouchable.

It's the sort of thing that could spark a full blown revolution though. Capitalists aren't known for their love of change.

I think the guy he allegedly killed, had a name that started with.... I think it was a d? David? Derek? Dddddouchebag. Douchebag, yeah. I think the person that died was a massive douchebag.

That seems right to me ....

[-] [email protected] 38 points 21 hours ago

Luigi didn't do it though. He's being set up by the prosecution.

Source? It sounds like a conspiracy theory based on nothing

What indicates that would be the case? Who would be the murderer?

[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 hours ago

There was no murderer. He died of natural causes

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 hours ago

After all, shootings are just a natural part of life.

What’s up with the misinformation and low effort trolls regarding this topic?

[-] [email protected] 0 points 3 hours ago

I haven't come across that. Do you have examples?

I know, I was certainly spending time with him during the alleged attack. He couldn't have done it while sat across from me at that diner, many miles away from where the crime happened.

He's the future highest profile instance of jury nulification.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

I think his name was Scumbag McFuckhead or something like that.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

Does he have a grave? Would be ashame to let a good outhouse to go to waste

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.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

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.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 20 hours ago

retirees? like the ones that spend half their time in a hospital room? paying 300$ for bandaids?

He prolly didn't even do it but who ever did do it, did the right thing

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 day ago

I’ve been saying the entire time they have the wrong guy.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 21 hours ago

Especially since I was hanging out with Luigi all evening and into the morning, during the time he allegedly was killing some guy.

Clearly he couldn't have done it, we were hanging out.

[-] [email protected] 56 points 1 day ago

I still don’t think it’s even Luigi that did it. Looks nothing like the guy from the video
