    he’ll be swept up by ice for existing, spend 3 weeks in a Totally-Not-Concentration-Camp™ before being deported via airdrop to somewhere in the middle of the Sahara, to far from towns and travel routes to get help before dying of exposure.

    While the Bought-And-Paid-For media spin it as a win for americans by dealing with a “Terrorist” that the “Woke Justice System” let go for woke wokeness reasons.

    They’ll arrest the jury.

    I mean, yeah, they’re not allowed to do that, but since when has that stopped this regime?

    The American government is doing their best to make him and his story disappear from the media. The same tactic will simply intensify. Killing him with the classic ‘prison suicide’ will only make him a martyr, so they will silence him and make him as invisible as possible.

    He’ll be found guilty in a civil lawsuit and then much later gets attested in Vegas while trying to get back some of his memorabilia at gunpoint. For which he will be getting an unusually high sentence. All the while he will write books claiming he will find the guy who really did it.

    I think the billionaire class will have an assassin ready to go. We’re not supposed to fight back. If he can be an example of punishment via the legal system, great. If not, well, they’ll pay to make that example of punishment so.

    I don’t see any avenue where he is found not guilty to be honest, but in that theoretical case, I think that there’s going to be a lot of older folk that absolutely lose their mind about the principle of the matter.

      It’s straight Jury Nullification within an hour of deliberation unless there are people on the jury who have been bought, by monetary means or otherwise.

        Not guilty seems very unlikely based on the publicly available evidence. I could see a hung jury happening though, as there are a minority of people who strongly want him to go free.

        Before he’s set for release, they’ll put him in a cell with someone already serving a life sentence. Another jailhouse killing.

          I would watch a sitcom about Luigi, and the series starts off with him being found not guilty. So they lock him in with a guy doing life. Their idea is to release him in 40 days. They think the life sentence guy will kill him. They assumed thats what would happen.

          Instead he and his cell mate become lifelong friends, and the style of the show changes from gritty and dramatic, to being shot like an 80s NBC sitcom, with a studio audience.

          Except it takes place in a comedy version of a jail. And it starts and ends every episode the same way. They wake up in their cell, and they go to sleep in their cell.

          Cue the freezeframe, roll credits, as a studio audience gives forced applause that kind of drags, and you can tell some guy is waving his arms like “CLAP LOUDER!!!” and they’re all just thinking “how long do we have to clap???”

    he’ll probably kill someone again. the judge was wrong to not allow a MH conviction to go forward, but ultimately that puts the jury in the position to let out a seriously mental ill murderer with no consequences or not.

      I think the assessment of “just crazy enough” to step past that boundary is spot on, but to say that the man is batshit? Not at all.

      This is a man who looked at a complex societal problem and chose a path, very deliberately. He didn’t just snap and walk into a building, guns blazing.

      He also very deliberately limited his damage to one guy. A woman with coffee walked right up to what was happening, he looked right at her, she left, he let her.

      This is not the action of a batshit person.

        His mental health declined until he murdered someone. It’s not that he is “batshit”- he had a very serious issue that he could not manage on his own. When you isolate from others, can’t work, and only focus on your own pain and violently hurting others until you do it- you are not a healthy person who can mange your own affairs. To me, it’s no different from saying someone “deliberately” slammed their head into the wall, so they don’t “need” a room with cushioned walls.

          Fair. Even so. To what degree that was the case, or not, is anyone’s guess. They’ve not pulled the trigger on a mental health defense, last check.

          All of the time? He allegedly did one murder. Plenty of mentally stable people only do the one. Don’t be ridiculous.

            If your only definition of “mentally stable” is “they don’t murder again”, then I guess you could make that argument, but it is ok to just acknowledge the fact that murder is not a healthy behavior. Like you don’t have to fight fact on that one. It’s just a known truth about the human condition. You can want Luigi out while acknowledging that murder is unhealthy and wrong.
