Damn. Looks like you guys are headed for a system that treats rich people and poor people differently. Where you can get away with countless felony charges just for being of a particular status in society. Where they’ll push for the death penalty for someone that shoots a CEO but sleep when schools get shot up (see below). I feel bad for you guys that all of this is only going to start happening to you on January 20, 2025.
Ok, so I was going with the online buzz around Luigi described in this article. According to the article, the claim is debunked but it then goes on to describe how school shooters have received terrorism charges and ended up with life in prison, but gives no examples of school shooters being given the death penalty. So I’m half wrong, as far as I’m concerned. They did almost immediately start talking about the death penalty for Luigi. And they haven’t gone that far with school shooters.
Several school shooters have been tried with the death penalty, no different than Mangione in that regard. In case you were unaware, Luigi hasn’t even been tried until his court date in February, after which a Jury will give their verdict and then a much later date Sentencing will be decided.
It would be unusual for capital punishment to be carried out in Mangione’s case even if he gets that sentence, even among those who are given the death penalty usually end up waiting years or even decades and by then a politician might come out and commute it forcing them to live out their lives in prison, such as the Biden administration commuting 37 such sentences but choosing not to commute several such as the Boston Marathon Bomber.

Can you please cite a source on school shooters who got off scott free?

Thanks for the better context. So all the talk and buzz is online hype that I got caught up in, clearly. Editing my original comment.
