Wow... Luigi Mangione just pled Not Guilty. He has to be banking on a jury nullification play, right? Honestly voir dire will be the most impactful part of the trial by far, I can't imagine the defense can present any credible exculpatory evidence.

they're charging him with terrorism, was he ever going to get a plea deal that was even remotely worth taking?

I can understand that, but that's exactly why I would offer him a halfway decent plea deal as the DA. Maybe offer 25 years at medium security, as opposed to being guaranteed to die at ADX Florence.

snow

snow

12:07

you just need one juror

snow

12:07

but i think that if i were the state, i would not be scared to bust the jury if i had to

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:08

I mean, you only need one juror to get a hung jury and a retrial, you need all 12 to get found innocent

Too public of a case, they have to go hard on the dude and in a couple years when people forget I am sure he can apply and get a lesser sentence or possibility of parole added. Dude needs to blame all the self medication he did
