oh I absolutely believe the allegation as plausible.

They NEEDED a fall guy for this and they NEEDED it to be so cut and dry that they could quickly make an example of him.

Even if Luigi DID do it? This is railroading for the sake of trying to scare everyone else to stay in place.

How insane would it be if he got off due to a technicality. Not holding my breath, but here's hoping.

[-] Kbobabob@lemmy.world 79 points 1 month ago

Not really that insane. Cops are mostly useless and fuck shit up all the time.

[-] Tm12@lemmy.ca 35 points 1 month ago

Mostly. Have a look at this chart to see their real impact.

On the flip side, if they illegally discover evidence but can prove an alternative, legal, way it could be discovered it becomes admissible. That's sometimes why they do it.

It has a word too, something like Alternative Reconstruction. I used to know the term.

"parallel construction" or "evidence laundering"

"buttering the goose"

Civil rights aren't a technicality. If he 'got off' it would be a victory for everyone who enjoys not being harassed by police.

[-] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

It may be a great way for the state to avoid a "not guilty" verdict.

His getting off a technicality doesn't make it clear he has support.

Really appears like they planted a backpack full of evidence on this innocent person, cops were desperate for a win

The IMPORTANT thing is to KEEP using RANDOM ass UPPERCASE in CLICKBAIT title SENTENCES. That is NOT at ALL irritating.

The most important part is to use MEANINGLESS HYPERBOLE like SLAMMED and EXPLOSIVE

Oh SHIT, his lawyer EXPLODED? With all the FEDERAL CUTS to staffing I WONDER, did they still have A JANITOR to clean her GUTS OFF THE WALLS?

[-] Zink@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago

Aunt Sally?

Did somebody hide your Facebook icon again? Oh, I’m talking about the Internet button that has the blue F on it.

Remember the eye brows on the photos. That is not Luigi in the photos!

[-] meowmeowbeanz@sopuli.xyz 44 points 1 month ago

Police misconduct allegations could unravel this case—constitutional rights aren't optional.

😺😺😺

They most definitely are

Continuing to pray for the Louisiana Supreme Court to all get lung cancer

[-] Zink@programming.dev 11 points 1 month ago

BREAKING: We have an unexpected ruling from the United States Supreme Court today. In a 6-3 decision they have ruled... wait this is really it? They have ruled "Hold My Beer."

[-] skozzii@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 month ago

Everyday police overreaching actually is a benefit for a change. Cool.
