    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.

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

        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.

      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.

          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.
