Whaaaaaaaaaaaat noooooooooooo, that can’t be right. Who other than every single person alive saw that coming?
Hopefully, they will televise it and trump will say “You’re fired” right before they pull the switch. That would be on par with the shitshow circus we live in these days.
Edit: added to the bit
Kill 24 normal citizens in a mass shooting in a Walmart, plea deal. Allegedly Kill 1 billionaire, death penalty
In Texas, you can shoot a guy in a wheelchair in between child molestations and the Governor while shake your hand while he pardons you.
I have zero idea whether this is sarcasm or not.
Abbott, who can only issue clemency on the recommendation of the Board of Pardons and Paroles, called for Perry’s pardon a day after he was found guilty.
Thats fucking crazy. Every single time I think the US can’t go further, I’m wrong. For like… the past 15 years.
You: the US can’t go any further
The US: challenge accepted!
Until of course the guy in the wheelchair is the Governor.
Governor Hotwheels
I don’t think a child molester deserves as cool of a name as hotwheels
As long as the guy in the wheelchair isnt the governor.
I don’t think he was a billionaire. But his job was a nasty one that did please billionaires.
He was nasty. No one who isn’t could have done that job.
Indications seem to be high 8 to low 9 figs. There is a fucking ocean between “not billionaire” and “average guy”. Also, obligatory fuck Brian Thompson.
Fuck him indeed. He got what was coming to him. I had no idea who he was until he was shot and I instantly hated him.
thompson was a low level ceo, but still he implements the denial policies. the head ceo is ANDREW WITTY, and the bod is hemsely, both british. WITTY made those asinine comments about the healthcare after his death
He rejected the plea deal. Taking a plea deal means you forgo trial. Granted actual mass murderers received lesser sentences like LWOP.
NYC doesnt have death penalty, so its unlikely he will get one. they want at least life or manslaughter charges on him.
He’s been indicted on state charges in NY, and also Federal charges, so he will be tried twice for the same crime, no matter what the NY trial decides. He can’t be executed for the NY state charges, but he can be executed by the Feds.
So conceivably he could be found not guilty in NY, and still get executed by a Federal court.
I’m sure this kind of thing is what occupies the broligarchs’ brains at least 90% of the time…
If we live in a country where a child can get ran over or shot every day and nobody gets prison time for it, we can set a man free who kills a serial killer that preys on the poor and injured for profit.
That corrupt piece of shit that dropped the trump University case for fifty bucks and a case of Boone’s Farm wants the DoJ to pursue the death penalty for a homicide. Sure. Best timeline ever.
Dig two graves Ms. Bondi.
Higher burden of proof on a case that already has improperly collected evidence? Sure thing, go ahead and virtue signal to the right that you’re still the party of law and order. The billionaires should still be scared after reading this.
The death of one, a tragedy. The death of millions, statistics.
death of millions for profit - solid business practice, congratulations and see you again at next shareholder meeting
I remember this quote from Blade 3!
This has a potentially significant chance of backfiring, as it is more difficult to get a jury to convict when the death penalty is at stake.
It’s going to be rigged this is a dictatorship now
sound bites for the scared fox boomers. nyc doesnt have death penalty, but the arrest has been botched from the start.
He should have used a car to run him down.
If he had run him over with a 12 ton Chrysler F750 or whatever he’d be walking the streets today
exactly. If you want to kill someone, just use a car. Obligatory fuck cars!
We all now know for sure what scares them.
the jury’s sleepless we found your weakness
If everything is the death penalty we might as well do everything.
This is straight up Diogenes. As in, same problem for the last 2300 years.
The punishment for stealing from the king’s garden is death.
The punishment for killing the king so everyone may eat from it is death.
Might as well go for the most effective use of your life.
Wouldn’t be anything left to lose
Finally. Justice will be served for the good of all.
100 % of Russian bots agree
The only justice would be to fire and jail all healthcare CEOs and, reform the industry. Luigi has killed far less people than the average CEO.
You mean give the death penalty to all CEO’s?
When the jury acquits him? I agree.
Just block this dude. He’s not worth listening to on anything, and he’s not worth arguing with.
Let’s try and keep old.lemmy.world a clean, hygienic place by blocking the garbage.
So they basically admit it is about revenge, not justice? How dare someone of the working class attack someone clearly superior! We must punish this worthless creature to put them into their rightful place at the bottom of the taxpaying pyramid!
…scheme.
Called it weeks ago. He’ll be long dead before then though. Almost certainly due to a prison shank. Mmw.
I think it’s more likely that he’ll hang himself, but I guess there’s a chance that he’ll stab himself dozens of times in the neck and chest.
I think everyone in prison likes him actually 😂
The cameras will call in sick to work that day.
