Bit optimistic that this will get to a trial.

My money is on an accident in a cell.

The cynic in me will also point out that they don't actually need the real killer either. Any random person resembling the pictures will do.

That would be awfully risky if they didn't already have the real vigilante in custody or on a slab, at which point what's the point of having a fake?

Like imagine if they announced they caught him or shot him and then the real guy targets another of the bastards?

They'll just blame it on a copycat killer and start arresting any one who walks on the same side of the street as a corporate CEO

For once in my life, I'm looking forward to copycats this time.

Dude merc'd a demon and got celebrated across the nation. Paradigm shift stuff.

I don't think so. Epstein was a very high-profile person. This guy isn't. There's no secrets he can spill. I think if he dies under suspicious circumstances it'll be suicide by cop.

If that dude gets on the stand and tells a sob story shared by millions of other Americans of watching family members die due to insurwnce companies denying coverage. There's a non zero chance things get spicy.

He'll kill himself while both his guards take their break on the other side of the prison and the camera temporarily malfunctions.

I dunno... some days I feel like one of a dozen people that actually remembers the Chris Dorner week. People have a very very short, selective memory.

True, but jury nullification doesn't work if people aren't aware it's an option. Just one more example of things that should be required learning in HS

The justice system unironically doesn't want people to know of jury nullification because it means that people can work outside what's written in the law.

I am under the belief that there was no murder and he had a preexisting condition of lead poisoning. As such, we unfortunately do not cover these kinds of conditions in our penal system and his claim must be denied.

If they find him, the jury WILL be hand picked to be the biggest bootlickers of all time.

Juries are always hand picked. Having an engineering or science background, having out spoken political opinions, or expressing a knowledge of Jury Nullification are red flags on good days. Lawyers are only trained to deal with influencable types of people. If you want to be selected, be the type of person who watches and believes advertises.

[X] Doubt.

Y’all live in a fantasy world.

If they find him and if he makes it alive to a jury trial, I think there’s a good chance he’s convicted.

Especially since there aren't twelve billionaires who would feel safe showing up together to sit on his jury.

They'd be biased too, so one way or another, it would be one hell of an explosive story.
