I can’t see 12 jurors finding him guilty. Hell, O.J. got off!
OJ got off because “the LAPD tried to frame a guilty man” and planted enough reasonable doubt in the minds of the jury
Generally speaking jurors find these things correctly, and this one seems pretttttty cut and dry, The X factor here is a jury nullification scenario where the 12 people in the box (or however many it takes it hang it) just dont care about the law and find him not guilty, but the court is pretty good about weeding them out
Even Trump got convicted in his case, when all it would take was 1 MAGA juror to hang it… surely theres one in the entire state
I say he gets convicted, but theres certainly a possibility either the prosecutors botch the case a la the LAPD with OJ, or the jurors nullify, but that seems low to me… 5% maybe

Thats one of the funniest, and probably more accurate descriptions of his case I’ve ever heard.

I’d say that the people who think he did no wrong are a much smaller minority than their presence on the internet would suggest and they are unlikely to make the jury. A few may slip through and create a hung jury, but that would just result in a retrial, not a not guilty verdict.
The people that are okay with murder in the streets because you think he is a bad man are not yet so numerous.

Remember how they asked detective Furman if he planted evidence and he plead the 5th? Crazy!
That and to people on the internet its completely abstract and mostly just smug titilation.
In a courtroom where they see police & autopsy photos, bloody clothing, crying wife & kids- thats real.
There are probably very few people that wouldn’t set aside their performative virtue signaling and safe distance from reality when faced with an official legal process involving an actual murder and all that it entails.

The people that are okay with murder and suffering by policy because it’s a matter of policy and said policy makers have bought the system are not so numerous.
On the bright side, we did get this.

It’s a shame they can’t see all those faceless people who died and suffered under Brian’s adherence to the policies of the death machine he worked for. But it’s my guess they will be on the jury’s mind.
And from what I heard his wife was somewhat nonchalant about the whole thing. Feel sorry for the kids though. But if they were old enough and knew what their dad did for a living…
If you support what he did, why don’t you have the balls to do it. There are a ton of healthcare CEOs out there.

Because he is a hypocritical clown
Isn’t he already spending time behind bars?
And yet, a competent prosecutor and unbiased judge will likely not allow any of that to be litigated in this court case. There is little reason to establish motive when the fact of the murder is so irrefutably established. The job and personal business of the victim may not even come up and certainly the overall conduct of the medical insurance industry will not be brought in for discussion.
Moreover, having problems with the way the medical insurance industry works does not mean that you are okay with premeditated murder in the streets.

Is it?
Also, supposedly Mangione’s diary was recovered which provides his motives. If the prosecutor wants to enter it into evidence, then he is opening that door.
Are you suggesting the Mangione didn’t pull the trigger? If so, I’m willing to accept that possibility since I haven’t examined the evidence in detail. However, my understanding is that this isn’t disputed. If you want to dispute the definition of “murder”, I don’t think that sort of argument will go far in court.
I’m suggesting he’s innocent until proven guilty. He may have done it but when the guy is arrested and the cops suddenly have all of this evidence and his whole life story within a day, it’s weird. They have a water bottle with his prints found at the scene. That doesn’t even place him there, only the bottle. He kept the gun? Who does that? Wasn’t the point of using a ghost gun to have something that couldn’t be traced back to anyone? If you keep it, it defeats the purpose.
If Epstein can be suicided and a former president almost assassinated in spite of secret service, then anything is possible.
Do you really believe the shit you type?

And what is your disagreement here? Where is the falsehood here?
