Excerpt:
Prosecutors highlighted “about $10,000 — $8,000 in U.S. dollars and then $2,000 in foreign currency that was found on his person,” CNN correspondent Danny Freeman said following the court hearing.
“Also they said that he had a Faraday bag,” which blocks cell signals, a move that prosecutors alleged marked “an indication of criminal sophistication and reason they should hold him on bail,” Freeman continued.
After prosecutors made the claims, Mangione said he would like to “correct two things.”
“I don’t know where any of that money came from — I’m not sure if it was planted. And also, that bag was waterproof, so I don’t know about criminal sophistication,” the suspect said in a statement that suggested police framed him.
A Faraday cage (bag) is not sophisticated. WTF, one can build one from chicken wire.
All it takes is 1 jury member.
This guy increasingly seems to be yet another right wing conspiracy theorist, he was into RFK Jr. Sorry to all you leftists who thought he was your hero, but it’s kinda seems like this is just the pizzagate shooter but more interested in the medical industry than the Clintons.
Well I’m certainly disappointed in his “criminal sophistication”.
Our incoming president is a convicted felon and RAPIST who incited an insurrection and illegally attempted to overturn an election.
The rule of law doesn’t mean shit anymore.
I could give 2 fucks if this guy lies through his teeth to get off the hook. Go for it bro.
Criminal says they’re not guilty. Never heard that before
Sounds to me like they couldn’t catch the real shooter but they snared a doplerganger and figured they could frame him up fast based on his social media. It doesn’t make sense, his family are millionaires…the boomers might buy this crap, but anyone gen x or younger isn’t going to believe this for one minute.
My ez-pass transponder came with a faraday bag - clearly ez-pass is a criminal organization
A former employer handed out branded faraday phone and wallet bags as a tchotchke- I must have worked for organized crime.
Oh no, passport faraday bags are all over Amazon - clearly criminal and needs to be shut down
Duh
Sadly, the most probable outcome from this is gonna be more privileges to CEOs. After all, they are now exposed to be killed on the streets. Maybe their insurance, as well as their brute salary, will also be way better. And surely, countless jackos are aiming for the vacant position.
My Christmas cookies from Costco come in a Faraday Cage… I’m so criminal right now!
His legal fundraiser has raised 27K in the space of a day. Free Luigi.
I still don’t understand how there can be any question, they caught him writing his memoir “How i totally killed that guy and why” by Luigi Mangione (an autographed copy). Open and shut case
A computer programmer with a common cyber security countermeasure you can buy on Amazon indicates criminal sophistication?
Sure Jan.
I’ve got a Faraday bag and foreign currency as well lol
