Please tell me he is getting a jury trial
If only we had some sort of social movement that tried to communicate that…
Ironically we did. And people showed up to kill those protestors and were pardoned by the governor who agreed with the oppression
They didn’t like the message, so they’re trying to send their own message.
I think there’s going to be a lot of back and forth messaging.
Once in a while, I’ll watch a Korean drama on Netflix and think, “Man, the main character often fights against the evil CEO of some giant conglomerate and the CEO is always friends with politicians or law enforcement.” It seems like such a trope but this Luigi case really brings that to reality. Anger against the rich has no international borders.
Then there’s me; once I got free food on an airplane because my friend’s cousin knew the flight attendant.
The departed Brian Thompson was under DOJ investigation for insider trading and fraud because he knew UHC was under investigation by the DOJ for fraud and sold $15 million in UHC stock – a full 31% of his holdings – and failed to disclose any of this to shareholders. UHC shares were trading for $520+ when he sold, and immediately fell to $470 when news of the DOJ investigation broke. In total, UHC execs cashed out for $117,000,000.
The DOJ was investigating Medicare fraud under Thompson’s leadership – as the nation’s largest insurance company was alleged to have been robbing taxpayers by mischaracterizing patients’ diseases to increase federal payments. Thompson also oversaw the implementation and continued use of a knowingly flawed AI system which erroneously denied care to countless patients.
Brian Thompson was a criminal running a criminal enterprise.
Shows how screwed up our priorities have became. We have LOST our morality, and sold it to the Devil for MONEY. And THIS country will PAY for it’s sins.
Chaos would ensue if they hand him down the death penalty. How would they give the death penalty to an innocent man who was hanging out with me on the night of the murder eating pizza and playing video games at my place.
Ny doesn’t have a death penalty!
How many school shooters live to see a trial?
They have to make a point with this one. People basically praising what he did has people worried.
Doesn’t NY not have the death penalty?
Well this would happen any where in the world CEO are friends with the politicians the real people don’t matter your just workers for there factory’s..
This post seems like nonsense. He’s being hit with federal charges, and one of those charges has a maximum punishment that includes the death penalty. And that charge is just “Murder with firearm,” not some obscure law or statute.
Like I sympathize with the message of the meme; personally I hope he walks free after a jury trial. But the *facts* of the situation are being represented here about as well as Infowars represents facts. I was going to say “Fox News”, but I don’t think even they could get away with “The US is trying to give Luigi the death penalty”.
Def not saying St. Luigi should face the death penalty but this is a false equivalency. Most school shooters are aged 12-18, with nearly 2/3 being under 17. The Supreme Court has ruled that the death penalty can’t be imposed on a minor, and many (about 50%) die before they can be brought to justice.
They don’t care about our kids because they refuse to address mental health issues and the ease of obtaining high powered tools of death that are the common occurrences in school shootings.
Let’s not worry with how their charging him and spread the good word of jury nullification.
New York doesn’t carry the death penalty though
This is bulls*#*t. Our kids are dying and nothing. But a CEO of a health care agency and WHAM!
Death penalty is illegal in the state of New York.
This country is so fucking stupid
I’m stating the obvious but given the reactions on social media, the method of execution will be death by snu snu.
If i say the things i want to say id be on a watchlist lets leave it at that
Star sanctioned murder by the police, secret service, the border patrol, FBI, game wardens and the military. That’s all just A-OK because it’s state sanctioned.
Killing an actual criminal (a perpetrator of state sanctioned legal crimes) is not.
Got it.
This is AmericaÂ
Hopefully this is caused for a martyr
Most times they don’t get the death penalty is because a) they just might be under 18, and b) in many states, the death penalty doesn’t exist anymore and c) in states that do have it, not everyone on a jury will be able to hand down that penalty once it becomes time for that, even if they said during the selection process that they could.
This is such horse shit. Eat the rich.
This hypocritical handling of the law is exhausting
So you support children getting the death penalty? That’s fucked up
No. This is not a,random mentally,unstable shooter. This was a planned assassination of a public official. terrorism is the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
There are a few reasons for this:
1. Many school shooters are minors when the crime occurred. Executing people for crimes committed as minors wasn’t ruled unconstitutional by SCOTUS until 2005, [but only occurred less than two dozen times between 1976 and 2005](https://justapedia.org/wiki/Capital_punishment_for_juveniles_in_the_United_States)
2. Many school shooters are killed by law enforcement to stop the shooter
3. Luigi Mangione is being charged with a death penalty crime under federal law. School shooters are usually charged in state courts. Luigi’s state charges (including terrorism) don’t carry the death penalty because NY doesn’t have the death penalty. School shooters in non-death penalty states can’t face the death penalty.
4. Many school shooters plead guilty (sometimes to avoid the death penalty if they are over 18), but the Parkland shooter pleaded guilty, and then still had a jury decide between death or life without parole, [they chose life without parole.](https://www.themarshallproject.org/2024/09/17/how-nikolas-cruz-avoided-death-penalty-takeaways)
