Federal prosecutors said no one from the state or federal government eavesdropped on a jailhouse phone conversation between Luigi Mangione and his lawyer.

    Man this dude just keeps getting hits to the system. This shit is spread wide open because one man decided not to be a fucking coward. He has put his life and freedom on the line. This is the definition of a hero.

      Humanity needs more Luigis for the cause of equality, the rampant capitalism has gotten way out of hand. It’s insane that 1% of the population owns 50% of the stock market.

        It’s insane that 1% of the population owns 50% of the stock market.

        And actively uses that ownership to shut down any trading they don’t like and leverage the money they gain to buy up assets and change the stock market rules so they own even more. Give tRump time and we just might see more Luigi’s in the country, and they may include expansion to a political few as well!

      I agree with you except that Luigi is innocent and being railroaded by the system. He’s a hero because he’s enduring cruel and unusual conditions and not letting it break him. The system needs him to be guilty because otherwise it becomes open season on CEOs, so they plan to publicly kill an innocent man.

    Prosecution: “We didn’t do it.”

    Defense: “Well, we have a recording of the call, and we sure didn’t record it.”

    Prosecution: “Uhhhh, there was a warning before the call that it would be recorded.”

    Defense: “Well, on the recording, no such warning exists…”

    Prosecution: “Ohhhh, that recording… Ummm, yeah, that was an intern, and they stopped listening as soon as they realized it was wrong. Pinky promise.”

    Well, which is it? It’s not Schrodinger’s eavesdrop. You either did it, or you didn’t. All this backpeddling just makes it sound like you definitely did but are trying to cover it up.

    To be honest, this sounds like the defense attorneys are setting up anything they can to muddy the procedures and greeting the case thrown out.

    Realistically, it’s probably the only way for this trial to have an outcome other than Luigi getting a death sentence, because that’s surely what the prosecution is going for…
