    There’s a part of me hoping dudes going along with it to aid in the others escape, solidarity style, and he’s got some iron clad alibi his lawyer plans to deliver in the courtroom that means they can’t convict him.

          I never put my dick away for Harambe. Does not matter what HR has to say about it.

      Plot twist: this was a group act all along. The murderer flees the scene. Once the image gets released, a second actor shows up at a McDonald’s, a public space. Gets reported to authorities by a third actor, who does actually work at McD’s. They waste the authorities’ time, and the second actor, having commited no crimes, proves his innocence. The actual murderer, in the meantime, disappears for real, benefiting of the time wasted by the authorities. Second actor represents something, and gets some cool pics getting “arrested”

      Idk, the idea just came to mind seeing the comment above

        Here’s the flaw in your plan: This doesn’t actually work in the US.

          Though the simple act of planting evidence on the suspect. No alibi beats a confession note and an untraceable gun

        if luigi hypothetically did participate in this plan, wouldn’t that itself be a crime (accessory to murder)? so they could still get him for something if they found out about the plan, but probably for less than if he did actually kill someone. i’m not a lawyer though so i don’t really know how this stuff works or if it would even be feasible to prosecute him for any of those things (if he did them)

          Yeah I think they could still charge anyone who was in on the plan with conspiracy to commit murder whether they pulled the trigger or not.

          Edit: at minimum

          That’s only something that could pretty much only be proven with a paper trail, which isn’t necessarily possible.

          The feds, and state of New York, already said that the informant wasn’t going to get a dime of the posted reward.

          The only class solidarity that we have seen systemically is for the owners.

            I knew this was how it would go down. I’m guessing they’re saying since they didn’t go through crimestoppers they can’t get it?

            I love it. Snitch gets their pretend cash snatched. Makes it less likely for people to snitch. And that fucker is going to be mad about it every day for the rest of their life.

            Source?

            One random news source here:

            The McDonald’s worker who reported the UnitedHealthcare shooting suspect to 911 is eligible for a reward, but it may take time for them to receive payment. NYPD officials have confirmed the worker is eligible for a $10,000 reward from the department if Mangione were to be convicted, but the FBI has yet to confirm eligibility for its portion, the remaining $50,000 of the total reward.

            (Wouldn’t vouch for any of it from a rando paper)

          Indeed, I can see the parallel. To the movie, of course. I have not read the book, which I reckon has no plots? (It seems ťo be history rather than story). Though they do differ in a few ways. Great movie, imo
