He’ll be back in the news when he goes to trial. He’ll really be in the news if jury nullification happens.
Just so everyone is aware, if jury nullifies this trial we will see the Supreme Court decide that nullification is no longer legal and is a criminal offense.
That is where the country is right now.
I’m praying that it will either be jury nullification or a full-blown acquittal since I have some doubts that he is the one.
It would actually be better if it turned out he was actually innocent. It means the actual killer got away completely scot-free.
I have a feeling that the real killer used a life like mask of Luigi. The dude is just a patsy. The real killers probably found some randoms Facebook account and decided to frame him. If you look at the security footage any novice can see that it was a governmental assassin. A professional hit to make it look like a grassroots uprising.
I can 100% say that Luigi isn’t going to make it to trial. They’re going to kill him in jail and say he died due to some medical problem or he killed himself.
And why would the government want to kill an insurance CEO who was doing his job exactly in the manner that pleases the establishment?
Who knows, but it happened.
Free Luigi. Patron saint of all of those denied for stupid reasons, including my friend who had to have his necrotic gallbladder removed last week, and one of those shitass insurance companies denied his hospital stay, because apparently your gallbladder should fall out of you itself or something.
I heard he was being held in another castle.
The next court date has been set for February 21.

As much as I’d like to believe it’s a conspiracy, news organizations make money from clicks. There isn’t much for them to monetize between now and February 21, so they’re focusing on more immediate stuff.
If they can get good photos and text from the next court date, Luigi will get more coverage.
Edit: there have been like five plane crashes, one US inauguration, and major US wildfires since his last court date.
Yeah. I agree. I know the news media has agendas to push, but stretching like this is counterproductive to starting or encouraging a movement.
Great points. Knowing the public is favorable towards Luigi, media outlets will definitely want to capitalize on any developments and opportunities to report on him since it’d generate clicks
Wait did you post this before the DC one tonight?!
I meant all the ones around Xmas, but yeah.
No, two weeks is our attention span and that’s stretching it.
Mine is about 5 minutes.
Mine is about
Americans also have the memory of a goldfish, tbf. Look at who they elected president because they forgot how bad things were just 4 years prior.
Not a bright lot there in the states.
Sorry, I was distracted, can you say that again
Unfortunately, it’s kinda just how our courts work. There really isn’t anything “new” to talk about his case until his next trial date on February 17. Not that there aren’t some conversations we all need to have about it, and how people feel about what he allegedly did. But right now everyone is distracted from that by the horse loose in the hospital. Hopefully at some point that trick stops working on us.
I mean, sure yeah. Also, though, most Americans are just dumb.
This is kind of a disingenuous take. What do you expect the news to do? Every morning 1 hour of “We are still pre-trial, no new evidence…” What piece of news persists for months and months after it happens, especially something as “self contained” as a murder.
Why not? They did that for Hunter Biden’s laptop.
And Hillary’s emails, the 2020 election, the border “crisis” etc. They just keep shit on repeat until it its no longer useful
No election is standing on Luigi though.
Yeah, I had the same reaction over the summer when people rediscovered the 2016 lawsuit that accused Trump of raping a 13 year old. Everyone was like, “Why is no one covering this???” Because they did. Eight years ago. Nothing new happened, it just got picked up by social media again.
“List of other people we think Luigi Mangione would like to kill” would be a good start.
You could probably start a tiktok trend if you make it cool enough.
Every day? You overestimate the attention span of the American public
US public also has goldfish memory. Its a wonder anyone bothers to even make new movies.
LOL largely we don’t. Have you seen the amount of sequels / spinoffs in theaters?
luigi was not on the news because he killed someone but because he caused the share price to drop. the share price has recovered since. as simple as that.
He got charged December 9, and lets be real, there were other orange skinned bits of news that the average asshole was more interested in then him by them.
Dicks out for Luigi 🍆🫡
That’s a parade I would join.
Why would he be in media when nothing is happening?
You should label your images if they are AI generated.
I didn’t even notice until your comment. That’s such a weird image to have an AI make; how hard is it to google ‘billboard in a city or whatever’ and run with the first result?
Not that hard at all. Though these days a lot of Google images results are also AI generated. I’m not even sure if the image above is real or not.
Honestly, why do you care?
because boooo AI

you’re choosing to interpret it negatively. you read to much into it. I tend to interpret ‘honestly, why do you care’ as someone who honestly wants to know why the other cares. Why would it not be that? It makes a lot of sense to me to ask this question, because I don’t see the relevance of something being AI or not in the context of a meme.

I was asking honestly. Why do they care? It’s a meme community. Why does using an AI image to get a message across matter? Why do they care?
You are reading way too much into it.
Label it how?
No. It’s just the news cycle. People forget quickly. This is no more special than anything else.
What would the news headline be?
Luigi Still In Custody While Waiting For Hearing
or
Mangione’s Attorneys Presumably Working Hard
or
Brian Thompson Still Dead
News doesn’t tend to report when things are the same as they were yesterday. If his lawyers aren’t talking to the press, and the prosecutors aren’t talking to the press, and the trial won’t start for another month, what exactly are the reporters going to report on?
I would love to see the headlines if this was the norm.
President Carter Still Dead, We Confirmed
Obama Not President, Maybe Enjoying Retirement?
Epstein’s Suicide Not Being Investigated
Actually any headline of something not happening sounds super suspicious lol
It would be nice to have a week of that kind of news just to get a break from the current doom news.
It sometimes happens during summer holidays, when journalists have nothing to write about.
As long as actual reporting went on afterwards it would be an upgrade
1+1=2
S(1)=2
So news only reports the news. How bizarre. This must be a conspiracy.
“Plenty of space on pavement outside NY Hilton for other billionaires to take a snooze” might work!
I don’t have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It’s a depression. Everybody’s out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel’s worth. Banks are going bust. Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there’s nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there’s no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that’s the way it’s supposed to be.
We know things are bad – worse than bad. They’re crazy. It’s like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don’t go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is: ‘Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won’t say anything. Just leave us alone.’
Well, I’m not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get MAD! I don’t want you to protest. I don’t want you to riot – I don’t want you to write to your congressman, because I wouldn’t know what to tell you to write. I don’t know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you’ve got to get mad. You’ve got to say: ‘I’m a human being, god-dammit! My life has value!’
So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell: ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’
I want you to get up right now. Sit up. Go to your windows. Open them and stick your head out and yell – ‘I’m as mad as hell and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’ Things have got to change. But first, you’ve gotta get mad!…You’ve got to say, ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’ Then we’ll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first, get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it: ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!

Ok buddy
There are whole genre dedicated to court cases and legal speculation, news reporting also gets ramped up to 11 when celebrities are involved.
I enjoyed the last one.
