There’s also jury nullification.
Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted?

Yes. I want the story of how United screwed them and their loves ones. I want thousands of families screwed by United to go as witness and tell their stories.
And hopefully the jury will find any evidence inconclusive.

that’s not how our justice system tends to work unfortunately. if the shooter is caught, he will end up in prison, no doubt about it.
plus, from a purely socialogical standpoint, having a nameless person with an unknown story allows people to put whatever story they want on them, which makes them a way more compelling figure cause they can appeal to pretty much everyone

The judge won’t allow that as evidence, I guarantee it.

If this goes to trial, and it probably will at one point provided he gets arrested, there is a decent chance of jury nullification.

Careful, this is .world
They are banning people for acknowledging jury nullification exists
