Summary
Sam Beard, organizer of Luigi Mangione’s legal defense fund, claims the dramatic “perp walk” resembling Hannibal Lecter’s treatment backfired on New York authorities, boosting donations to over $743,000.
Mangione, charged with murder and terrorism for allegedly killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, received heightened security during extradition, drawing public sympathy.
Critics argue the campaign glorifies violence, while supporters emphasize fair trial rights.
Mangione, who pleaded not guilty, faces the death penalty if convicted.
The shooter is immortal with or without Luigi. The shooter showed us they bleed and they’re scared and stumbling now to stay in control.
They have to sit and marinate with their mortality now. It scares them knowing they aren’t that different from us
Luigi may live or die, but the Adjuster remains
This. Especially because it took days to actually find him. Imagine how pants-shittingly-scared the oligarchs would be if one got capped and they couldn’t find the killer?
Who says they have found the killer? All I see is a scapegoat, snatched up by a panicking NYPD

I don’t have to. That’s how scared they are now. Luigi is a cope. He didn’t do that, he’s just there to make the oligarchs feel better like a night light
And that’s why I think that he’s not the one. They scrambled to find whatever evidence and pinpoint to anyone remotely similar to make an example out of him (this comment can be full of conspiracy). My take is they will pin someone, make an example out of him and demotivate future Green Guys.
But the issue is just a social class problem. A CEO is killed, media labels him as a domestic terrorist, a narcissist destroys the whole country (Elmo) and he’s a “hero”, especially if he uses one of his 13 meat shields.
Don’t forget that Elmo is also an autist. You could just as easily and just as truthfully say an evil autist is destroying the country.
I don’t know why you’d want to politicise a mental disorder like that, but since you’re already doing it, you might as well go all the way.

Psychiatrist never diagnosed him with ASD. Psychiatrist never diagnosed him with NPD. It’s all rumours and stereotypes. He wants the sympathetic stereotype, Lemmy users who think they’re leftists want the unsympathetic stereotype. How about we leave stereotypes out of the conversation to talk about the piece of shit he actually is, instead of which neurodivergencies we think we can use as weapons against him?
Exactly. They would allege some look-alike did it, so you wouldn’t know about it. That might even be what happened here.
I’m pretty sure that’s exactly what happened here.
The odds of finding the real culprit after they’ve already eluded capture for 5+ days are extremely low.
Additionally, the evidence they supposedly found on him is extremely suspicious:
That doesn’t just sound like the sort of thing that would be planted on him… that sounds like the sort of thing that would be planted on him by an idiot.
Unless they have actual body cam footage of them catching him and finding the evidence, I have to assume he was framed.
And knowing that they are just as expendable to us as we are to them.
