Do you think there’s a world where his pleading innocent, and his attorneys’ arguments that someone else did it will affect his status as a folk hero? It seems like a fine line for him to tow, for him to minimize his sentence, but not negatively impact the message, and his status in bearing it.
I want to see him do it, but that seems like the challenge of his position.
At this point, the idea of Luigi is more important than the man. And it doesn’t hurt that the media’s been fucking up and forgetting to call him an ALLEGED killer.
So he’d be the reverse of OJ, in that he’d be found innocent of a crime he didn’t commit, but beloved by everyone as most believe he did to it. (Whereas with OJ being found innocent of a crime he DID commit made him hated because everyone believe he did, infact, do that shit)
OJ is a lot different. He was a famous celebrity sports figure. He killed or didn’t kill his wife. The public only cared about OJ because of his celebrity status, and because the woman was white, and he is black.

You toe a line, you don’t tow it.
Huh, I did not realize that was the standard usage. TIL.

I don’t think it’s a very good comparison.
