I’m unsure if he means his arrest is unjust due to the order of magnitude worse injustice of the healthcare system or Luigi stating he’s not the culprit (vigilante, hero, The Adjuster - whatever noun floats your boat).
It seems like the former? Annoyingly unclear.
He’s claiming the police planted evidence on him as a attempt to justify denying bail. Specifically he says they planted a large amount of cash that he didn’t have on him ever and has no idea where it came from, and they lied about a waterproof bag he had for his phone, saying it was a faraday cage, and claiming his possession of such an item means he’s too sophisticated a criminal to be allowed bail.
He knows what’s coming. They aren’t gonna want him to get to speak to a jury because it’s not gonna be a guarantee they convict him. If he gets a not guilty verdict, that would be VERY bad for the ruling class, so that’s not gonna be allowed to possibly happen.
Yeah, I’m already extremely suspicious at the convenience of his arrest, given that there has to be a repercussion shown to the ‘plebs’ - can’t have them getting ideas now about the ease with which they could depose their ruling oligarchs and actually get away with it.
I didn’t know about those details regarding the evidence being planted, so his statement makes much more sense with that context, thank you.
I was suspicious the instant they called out the 3D printed “ghost gun”. While certainly possible, it was waaay too convenient an excuse given how that may have swung some opinions about gun safety and control. Now they’re rushing this.
Keep an eye out for thinly veiled attempts at obfuscation.
Whatever happened to it being a Welrod?
Goddess these news outlets don’t know shit when they publish shit.
The cops leaked/released a picture of him in jail after he peed his pants, likely from being teased or something.
And multiple of him in the suicide prevention room, which notoriously doesn’t prevent suicides, and is complete 24/7 isolation with only a weird smock.
It’s not to prevent suicide, it’s torture. So he’s likely screaming about how he’s actively being tortured.
He’s rich tho, his lawyer will likely get him bail.
It’s like insane this is the standard and no politician ever wants to address our system.
