The "new light" seems to be the body cam footage that really just confirms things that were already claimed by the defense. Namely that he was questioned for 20 minutes before being read his Miranda rights. The body cam footage also shows the backpack being searched which wasn't explored in the hearing but the article notes it will likely come up later on since the defense claims there was no warrant to search the backpack. These things are old news, but the body cam footage is new afaict
Let's be real though. He did it, we know he did it, and Lemmy is just hoping that he can get off on some technicality. I hope he's convicted because, ya shouldn't be able to just shoot someone you don't like. Yes, he shot a scumbag. But that's a slippery slope because I think lots of people are scumbags, but I don't shoot them.
I wanna see Luigi convicted and sentenced to life in prison. But I also want to see insurance execs like the one he shot, convicted and sentenced to life in prison.
Innocent until proven guitly. Without that, we can not claim to be a free country.
Agreed, but I'm not a juror, so I can express my opinion. But what's your excuse gonna be if he confesses?
A confession of guilt is still innocent until proven guilty. Im not sure what point you are trying to make.
You know what point I am making. And ya know he did it, you just want him to get away with it. So just admit that. Don't dance around and pretend that you have other reasoning.
Either way, I guess we are gonna find out what a jury thinks.
I dont know the guy, and i dont know if hes guilty or not. i could not care less if he is guilty or not.
What I care about is the rule of law. The rules exist to protect citizens from both criminals and the police. The rules must be followed.
