Defense attorneys for alleged UnitedHealthcare CEO shooter Luigi Mangione say prosecutors at the Manhattan district attorney's office violated his health privacy rights.
There is no reason to believe he’s innocent. I hate rich people that kill people with their disgusting and shitty decisions too but I don’t think he is literally innocent of putting holes in the CEO’s body.
Fortunately this is not how criminal courts work. Or at least not how they’re supposed to. You don’t have to prove your innocence, they have to prove that you are guilty.
You are owed a day in court and all due process before the government punishes you.
You aren’t owed an unlimed presumption of innocence by the general public who can and do read and come to reasonable conclusions in their own time.
Everyone knew that the Menendez brothers did it before the trial and everyone knew OJ did it after the trial even before he wrote a book about how he did it entitled “if I did it”
It’s weird that you can’t distinguish between what you are owed morally in the court of public opinion and what you are owed legally in criminal court.
Media crews can easily isolate both the mcdonalds in question and anyone working there. 911 calls are usually recorded. None of that info hit the public afaik.
I’m not sure thats ever stopped the media before. The case gets eyeballs, sells ads. Its not like they’re putting people in witness protection for this.
The real problem here is I think there wasn’t a call. I suspect he got caught in some kind of illegal surveillance net.
Which tells me that they have no evidence whatsoever and he is innocent.
He’s actually innocent. But they need a scapegoat to make the rich class feel safe.

If you think he put holes in that CEO, prove it.

I feel like there is hokey in how they caught him. Its still odd that he was “reported by a mcdonalds worker” that doesn’t seem to exist.
Where are you getting the idea that the person doesn’t seem to exist?

Why would it when it would surely lead to harassment which would interfere with a witness
