Defense attorneys for alleged CEO killer Luigi Mangione said Thursday in a new court filing that the murder indictment a state grand jury returned against him should be dismissed due to double jeopardy and other alleged violations.
The indictment should be dismissed “because concurrent state and federal prosecutions violate the Double Jeopardy Clause, the Fourteenth Amendment’s Due Process Clause and Mr. Mangione’s constitutional rights against self-incrimination, to meaningfully defend himself, to a fair and impartial jury and to the effective assistance of counsel,” defense attorneys wrote.
Defense attorney Karen Friedman Agnifilo said in the filing that “prosecutorial one-upmanship” resulted in Mangione facing state and federal charges in New York and separate charges in Pennsylvania.
Basically to wrap it up. Probably didnt matter who they picked up. They just needed someone similar build.
Why wrap it up?
If someone can murder a ceo and dissappear then anyone can. Wrapping it up and punishing someone as quickly as possible is to prevent other copy cats. Doesn’t matter if the person is innocent. They do this to minoritity folks all the time.
Yes, okay, but they don’t generally wrap up other manhunts after a murder occurs. It took them 17 years to catch Ted Kaczynski. Months to catch the guy who killed MLK Jr. Only 12 days to catch John Wilkesbooth but that’s more of an outlier.
Why wrap up a CEO murder, specifically?
Capitalism. Ceo is elite untouchable class. shooter Proven they can bleed for their actions. A health ceo is worst since they can direct policy on who lives or dies. Imagine that women who died at 32 because insurance didnt cover her breast cancer tests. Anyone who loved her who thought they could get away with it may want retribution and seeing someone previously get away with it will further motivate them.
Uni bomber for most part attacked normal people. Until he killed 2 executives did they nail him.
MLK was black and advocated for more rights. so im sure that back burner to let the fear of others taking up his mantle set in.
Right lol it’s all some secret cabal, a club that everyone except you is in.
And another thing, whats the point of preventing a copy cat if you don’t prevent the actual killer?
