    His case has disappeared from global news coverage what with everything else going on, so this is a really surprising update!!

  2. I don’t know law so correct me if I’m wrong but I feel like they tried to get the death penalty to make an example of him.

  3. Good! I maintain that the man in custody is not the shooter, but regardless, death penalty being off the table is a good thing.

    Honestly I’m not personally that surprised by the death penalty thing in the context of mounting public anger and unrest.

    And this part is disappointing:
    > Judge Margaret Garnett also ruled Friday to allow into Mangione’s trial evidence recovered from his backpack at the time of his arrest.

    > Law enforcement seized several items from Mangione’s backpack, including a handgun, a loaded magazine and a red notebook – key pieces of evidence that authorities have said tie him to the killing.

    > Mangione’s attorneys had argued for the evidence to be barred from trial, contending the search of their client’s backpack was illegal because they had not yet obtained a warrant and there was no immediate threat to justify a warrantless search.

  5. I read somewhere that some dude pretended to be the FBI tried to free him but got arrested

  6. I don’t like that the judge is allowing the evidence from a warrantless search, but the good news outweighs the bad a bit.

  7. Idk why they don’t mention that the reason DP isn’t on the table anymore is because the judge dismissed his murder charges.

  8. The burden to get a death penalty conviction is very high. This judge is saving them from themselves.

    A judge ruling out a death penalty is a sign he knows the prosecutors’ case is flimsy and doesn’t mean the highest possible standards to impose a death penalty

  10. I still don’t understand why this case is still a thing over him being an alleged murder suspect

    The real story is the evidence from his backpack being allowed despite the arguments for the police’s unlawful search

  12. He needs to be freed TODAY so he can dispatch more CEOs who will be replaced the next day! Put that boy to (meaningless) work.

    When other healthcare CEOs cry out that this is unfair

    He shouldn’t face any penalty at all.

    The victim was a monster, the cops did EVERYTHING wrong in collecting evidence, and he wasn’t there.

    We were watching hockey game together on that day. I remember because the team I was rooting for lost and he just wouldn’t shut up about it.
