Really appears like they planted a backpack full of evidence on this innocent person, cops were desperate for a win
Then botched his 4th Amendment rights and will likely get away with it becuase government needs him in prison for this to make the parasite class happy
Republican judges have been itching to do away with the exclusionary rule. It's not written into the Constitution.
The 4th prohibits unlawful search and seizure but doesn't specify a remedy. The exceptions practically swallow the rule as it is now; attenuation of the taint, good faith, public safety, independent source, inevitable discovery, to name a few.
As a non lawyer reading that list of exceptions, it sounds like it will be easy for the prosecutors to get a few to apply?
Yeah, most likely.
Which was?
"Hack the planet!"
"It's completely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people"? Comes up if you search Luigi Mangione shouting
it makes complete sense to most of us, because it IS an insult to our intelligence that the cops think we will believe Luigi did it after the way this was handled.
Pretty revealing that you remember him yelling something that proved his guilt to you but you don't remember what it was.
Maybe examine your own biases and what kind of track record law enforcement has with regards to respecting individual rights and the presumption of innocence.
Honestly? I hope it was someone else but I don't know enough about the situation on the ground to say either way.
Practically? Cops are so corrupt, incompetent, and power hungry. that they'll say/do anything to the person they think is the criminal.
Personally? I hope he beats the charge and it inspires thousands of other people to do the same.
That sounds exactly like something an innocent person would say to me.
It (my arrest and trial for murder) is completely unjust (because I am innocent) and an insult to the intelligence of the American people (because there was is no real evidence)
I think it's wildly optimistic with regards to the intelligence of the American people, but it's a totally plausible thing to say.
He is going to regret that for a long time. If he had screamed "I didn't do it" instead, he would probably be out already.
What is he regretting specifically?
"It's completely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people"?
Yes, because it's a sign of guilt for most of the population and it greatly diminishes the possibility of it being a set up, or at least a jury being persuaded that it was.
I think what he did was praise worthy but it's going to be very hard to get out of it and he definitely didn't do himself any favors with the outburst.
What are you basing this opinion on?
Do we even know in what context the phrase was being used?

The context where he is being accused of killing a Healthcare CEO and blurts out exactly what someone that killed a Healthcare CEO would say.
I love the guy but common, you gotta be realistic about it.
Or what you might yell if an implausibly convenient stash of evidence had been planted on you?
That isn't my takeaway, at all.
Gonna need some sources and context on that one, Ace.
So what's happened here is you've formed a strong opinion, had some minor confirmation at some point, and projected that opinion onto everyone else as if they agree with you.
They don't.
Sure, some might, but generally people are trying to figure out if you are a troll or just stupid.
I'm so confused by this he didn't say "I'm glad the CEO is dead" he said "my arrest was unjust"
What is so incriminating about that?
