“We’re thrilled that Luigi is accepting these funds so that he can mount the strongest defense possible,” said D4 Legal Committee spokesperson Sam Beard in a statement. “The American private health insurance industry has ruined countless lives by denying people access to basic care and burying families in medical debt. It’s no surprise that Luigi’s alleged actions are understood and supported by tens of millions of hard-working Americans.”

This sounds weirdly phrased. He pleads not guilty because he didn't shoot the CEO and not because he thinks that shooting the CEO shouldn't be a crime, right?

Alleged actions. So, people want to come to his aid so the system doesn’t make another innocent victim. Perhaps it even shines a bigger light on the systemic issues.
