    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.

          I dont remember the exaxt words. It wasn’t an admission of guilt if that’s what you’re asking. It was a rant about healthcare or capitalism, or both, and whatever it was, an average jury member would probably see that as incriminating since an innocent person probably wouldn’t have yelled that out at that time.

          Yes, lots of people have a beef with health care and capitalism. But his bahavior at that time was suspect.

            “It’s completely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people”? Comes up if you search Luigi Mangione shouting

              Yes, that was it. I guess I took “it” to be the healthcare situation, but I guess it could mean anything. Still, his yelling is sounded like a protest, and the killing itself definitely was. All I’m saying is, it doesn’t sound like the words a random person would yell out to reporters on his way into court.

              You could argue that “it” is his arrest. But that doesn’t make much sense with the rest of the sentence, imo. I can’t tell what the reporters might have asked before he said that. One said, “Did you do it?”, I think, but his reply doesn’t make sense to that. At least one other one said something else that I can’t hear.

                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.

        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.

            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.

              it’s a sign of guilt for most of the population

              What are you basing this opinion on?

              Do we even know in what context the phrase was being used?
