Multiple Department of Justice employees "may have violated" Luigi Mangione's right to a fair trial through public comments and social media posts, a federal judge ruled on Wednesday -- and it could end up swaying the judge to grant a defense motion to take the death penalty off the table.
This is about the federal trial. They sure him at State and federal level, apparently having decided that’s somehow a loophole to get around double jeopardy. Smells like bullshit to me.
It is bullshit, but it’s well established American bullshit rather than new Trump bullshit.
The country has been fucked for a long time, it’s just getting worse.
