The 26-year-old suspect in the New York City shooting death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson has been indicted on federal charges.
Luigi Mangione was indicted Thursday by a federal grand jury on one count of murder with a firearm, another firearms offense and two counts of stalking. If convicted as charged, he would be eligible for the death penalty.
Weird, shouldn’t they be trying to find the guy from the shooting video instead? Mangione looks nothing like him.
What’s weird to me is that if this were any other person, there wouldn’t be a potential of death penalty. We wouldn’t have heard about it. Also, nobody would’ve fucking cared.
The was a video that was up on Instagram for hours of a man walking up to another guy in front of a convenience store and shooting him in the head. Face was very clear in the video. Guy died. Attacker wasn’t found. Still waiting for the nationwide coverage
It’s about to happen, just you wait. They just have to make us believe that that dude dying was a benefit to us nationally. Once they realize that it’s a good thing, they’ll take it away from us.
It’s how the world works, the system is trying to protect itself by setting an example. The question is if it should deter us.
I’m calling it now: they’re pursuing federal charges so that they can get him into federal custody and then rendition him to CECOT.
Everybody knows he’s enough of a public hero that there’s 0% of him getting convicted by a jury, so the fascists are taking steps to destroy him without one.
Run for office, then they can’t convict
Let’s run him as a presidential candidate for the next 3 years. Would be a hiliarious message for the establishment. I’m sure he would poll well.
I was trying to remember what it means to be indicted by a grand jury
In a grand jury, they are simply determining whether there is enough evidence to even seek a trial in the first place and to bring these charges on behalf of the people. Because of that, the standard is much lower. The standard is probable cause
Also it just requires a simple majority
Very weird that they would do this considering NO LAW MATTERS ANYMORE, IF OUR LAWMAKERS DONT ACKNOWLEDGE THE LAW, WE DONT EITHER.
Glad to see someone else is waking up to the nuances of post-law society.
It’s basically “do the cops have enough to be harassing / jailing this guy?”
Death penalty? People done worse that that and didn’t get a death penalty. This can’t be right
New York State doesn’t have the death penalty, they moved his case to Federal Court specifically so they could pursue the death penalty.
Let me remind you of an event from not so long ago:
“Here’s to you, Nicola and Bart Rest forever here in our hearts The last and final moment is yours That agony is your triumph”
Found with ghost gun in silencer. Over a week later, that’s kind of like the passport at the trade center.
Next up, military tribunal!
Why?
Because imaginary line must go up!
