As a British lad, I’ve been keeping tabs on the news about this guy and the wide support he’s getting.

With so much support, surely the public will get him out of jail just to spite the bastard rich kids and their CEO baron fathers?

The Man who was shot allowed a massive corporation to dangle its strings over people’s lives, medication being pulled away which is horrifying to me who uses the NHS as my primary medical service for hearing.

What do you think? Will Luigi “The CEO Reaper” Mangione ever get out of prison?

In the US, a jury can choose to ignore the facts, and they can not be punished for it.

I actually think that’s quite a nice check on judicial power

On one hand, yes. On the other hand, this has largely been used in the deep south to ensure that people who openly lynched black people evaded conviction.
