I really think he’d have a shot at jury nullification tbh

I really don't understand how and why he doesn't rather receive a huge award and a statue in his honor for having eliminated a rotten and abominable scourge and leech like that monster was and as in fact any CEO of any insurance company is, instead of prosecuting him as a criminal. Like, insurance industry is what should be illegal, he did only the correct thing.
If the next dem président has any balls (or ovaries) at all, they'd pardon him for the federal charges as their first official act.
I'm afraid, that's not how capitalism works.
I woulda nullified 🤷♂️
This is how they railroad innocent people into pleading guilty for crimes they didn't commit, just pile on charges to make it too risky to prove your innocence!
It's still completely insane to me that this pretty little Italian man is being punished for a crime that CCTV footage showed was a tall angry Anglo-Saxon man in his late 40s.
The original CCTV footage showed a much older very white very dangerous man.
The only way Mangione could be dangerous is if I put pineapple on my pizza or I mispronounced "Rigatoni". That's just a joke, I'd never put pineapple on pizza.. Pineapple is only good when it's fresh.
Why would he plead guilty to something he didn't do?
Because if he doesn't take the deal then they will make sure to throw everything at him and ream his life and chances of survival.
"Don't make this harder than it has to be, Mr Mangionski. Just sign here, and you will get a lenient 40 years in Gulag."
The American justice system be like:
Insurance companies threatening to go full boeing on his loved ones?
Guilty of what, public littering? I guess he did leave a pile of garbage on the street.
he needs a better lawyers, or new ones. if he has to plead guilty.
This is what happens when you hire Wario as a defence attorney.
Well, the charges he’s pleading to are stalking. Not the murder charges, and pleading in the federal case can get the state case for murder thrown out on double jeopardy under NY law if the federal case is settled first.
This isn’t that bad of a move for him.
I guess the good news is that the actual killer got away with it and might strike again.
