This should be an automatic forced recusal.
But it wont be, because the billionaires and CEOs are scared, and don’t care about the appearance of propriety. They want Luigi sacrificed on an altar to instill fear and intimidation into those that might follow his example.
Pretty sure Luigi’s lawyer can (and will?) push for a different judge. I know the justice system in the US sucks but if you don’t even give a chance to the rules it’ll never be able to do anything right
Remember remember!
The 4th of December
A CEO dies all alone;
On the street he was lain,
cold, pale and in pain,
thousands of deaths that he own.
The decisions he’d struck,
Layers removed from the slaughter,
Were a shareholder’s treat,
Your dead mother or daughter.
Those investors all wait, on that cold winter morn,
Still unawares of profit potential they’d mourn,
Poking at hotel breakfast, bored looks on their face
As was Brian’s when he denied and delayed at great pace
Endless growth, deposed, on behalf of us all
Luigi didn’t do it, we were hiking in Nepal.
I would think it might be excusable if this were a straight-up murder charge, which is mostly facts and evidence based. However, if they’re charging him with terrorism, which is much more subjective, doesn’t that make this a serious conflict of interest?
No. It’s inexcusable. Even if he pooped on her lawn she should have no right to be legally judging him.
Can’t help but be biased here. The facts fit too well. Remember, bias has to do with the perception of poor judgment. We don’t need to gamble on it.
A certain fair and unbiased trial he’s getting…/s
That was the magistrate. Whether the trial will be biased is something we don’t know yet.
“I swear, officer, that I didn’t kill that judge. The fact that my search history indicates an interest in 3D printed guns, and I own the works of Karl Marx, AND I was wearing a free “Free Luigi” shirt doesn’t prove anything.”
I’m not so sure this would be considered a conflict of interest.
Don’t get me wrong; it’s egregious, but I don’t know if it actually is a COI.
(Not a lawyer).
Yikes. Incredibly messed up.
Rich people being shot means nature is healing ❤️
Life, uh, finds a way

Could’ve known fair would not be on the table
“conflict of interest” was old speak from the dark ages.
We are in the second Gilded Age
You’re a pure soul… but you didn’t say “God bless you” when I sneezed.
Definitely good reason to get them swapped out for a different judge but are they going to oversee the whole trial or just the pretrial?
Also, they were an executive at Pfizer, not an insurance firm.
Yes, you’re right, Pfizer has absolutely no relationship with the insurance companies.
We’re idiots guys, let’s pack it up and move on!
I said it was a good enough reason for them to recuse themself.
Pfizer isn’t exactly in the good graces of the public either.
For profit healthcare is the problem. It’s not the doctors, or nurses, or phlebotomists, or pharmacists that are trying to save lives. It’s the people who handle the money fucking around with people’s lives so they can make more.
Right now it’s the largest pharmaceutical company in the USA maybe on earth, so definitely can’t be morally upright. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
This is the sort of thing judges are supposed to recuse themselves over.

Meaning what, exactly?
“Just lay down and let bad things happen forever, it’s better to let a million people die than shoot a single villain.”
Yeah, clearly the problem are the suspects and not the system that has “justice” be dispensed by crooks.

Yeah you still have time to delete this buddy
Once against proving we have a two tiered justice system.
