Whether there is a legal justification depends on a jury. Sorry you don’t like it but it’s how the law works. I suggest you try to learn about the things you have opinions on.

First off- yes, this scab deserves what they get.

But, assume for one second that the “leaked manifesto” is legit. Then the point is was to get caught and go to trial. The gambit is jury nullification in this matter would remove the disincentive for this to happen again. When a capitalist gets too greedy and they create a substantial risk that you will be similarly dealt with and the local community will sanction it.

It just occurred in the reverse ideological context with Jordan Neely’s death (murder). In that context, NYC mental health workers are concerned it is now “open season” on their clients. Here, it would be open season on their capitalist class.

Other than the rapid growth of the personal security industry. I would expect to see further concentration of wealth into specific areas to create jury pools that would be stacked in favor of protecting capital. Either that or the criminal justice system will collapse.

To tie back into the post, assuming this was intentional, then if it wasn’t McSnitch it was just a matter of time till someone else ratted. I guess the real disappointment is that the reward was so low when they did. Shows how disorganized the labor class really is.

Murder is the unlawful killing of another human without justification or valid excuse committed with the necessary intention as defined by the law in a specific jurisdiction.

Justification is a defense in a criminal case, by which a defendant who committed the acts asserts that because what they did meets certain legal standards, they are not criminally culpable for the acts which would otherwise be criminal.

NYS Penal Law SECTION 35.15 Justification; use of physical force in defense of a person

Whether or not he is a murderer depends on whether the DA can meet their burden of proving he committed the acts necessary to satisfy the elements of NYS definition of whatever degree of murder the Grand Jury indicts (if that happens) AND he is not able to establish the affirmative defense of justification.

None of these determinations have been made yet.

I gotta ask, are you a time traveler or a boot licker?

After he is arraigned (first appearance before a judge) AND assuming bail is set in an amount he cannot pay AND that he is held in Rikers (HUGE safety concerns) you can look him up here and then send money for commissary and sometimes pay bail.

I believe you must provide personally identifying information to send money/pay. There is no guarantee that the City won’t try to find a way to seize money sent.

Edit: typo

Is he repped yet? If not and anyone knows how to get in touch with his people please contact me. I have a line on a few free attorneys that take cases of this magnitude.

Hey genius… Ben Crump is a free lawyer off the internet. Maybe instead of shooting down offers to help you take your head out of your ass.

Any paid Manhattan attorney has more in common with the CEO. This guy needs a real street fighter. Not some prissy bitch.
