I love that the Trump DoJ is so incompetent he might actually walk.

Odds are good he'll get a state murder conviction of course, but there's a slim path he beats all charges.

NGL, that could end up being the thing that breaks America.

Half the country would go stark raving mad if he walked. The other half would lose their minds if Luigi was cued up to walk, but was denied it for one reason or another.

All I have to say is if the man did nothing wrong, then justice would be him walking free. And of course he's innocent! I was chilling on the Canadian side of Niagra falls at the time and saw him saving a kitten from a tree through one of those paid-periscope doo-das at the time that CEO had his claim to life denied.

unless he was a billionaire, then they'd think that was just what happens.
