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.
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
Weird, shouldn’t they be trying to find the guy from the shooting video instead? Mangione looks nothing like him.
Let me remind you of an event from not so long ago:
When one man fights for the People, the People must fight for him
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.
Hopefully we get more luigis
I think if they keep playing these games with his case we’ll see more. That Ohio (?) workers comp guy could have been a follow -up.
I was on a jury for a workers comp case. Guy was suing some corpo because they denied his workers comp just because. Our entire jury was like “fuck that scummy corpo lawyer” and we sided with the guy who was a dedicated rail worker for like 20+ years. Felt like a small win.
exactly people aren’t going to side with these guys if they actually started getting hunted
be the change you wish to see in the world.
