Yeah. Plea deal vs trial. The only reason this guy didn't get the death penalty is because they held it over his head to force him into the plea deal. If it went to trial they would seek the death penalty for sure.
I think the larger issue is that Luigi will not be offered a deal. He will be made an example.
last we heard he was indicted on grand jury charges, they want to drag this as long as possible, so people will forget he exists, so they can fully charge him.
Luigi is not guilty, and a jury is sure to find him so.
I have many doubts about his guilt, but the rule of law is more important than any one crime. It is better for a guilty man to get a fair trial and go free than for an innocent man to be railroaded and unjustly punished. To me, it is obvious he has not received fair or just treatment under the law. It doesn't matter to me if he is guilty or not, he should go free because the prosecution has poisoned the well.
Hell of an example if the jury says not guilty.
How could they convict? Luigi doesn’t even look like the guy from the video. He looks like a saint to me. Not guilty!
the man has 10,000 alibis in every us state and territory. sounds like reasonable doubt to me.
For sure
