ISRAEL SALAS-RODRIGUEZ FROM THE US SUN
LUIGI Mangione will never be found guilty for allegedly executing UnitedHealthcare’s CEO — instead, prosecutors will burn through taxpayer dollars trying to convict him, a prison consultant has claimed.
[…] This is no longer about Luigi and what he did. It’s about the healthcare system.
[…] Wall Street Prison Consultants founder Larry Levine believes that when Mangione’s trial eventually starts, a jury will never reach a unanimous guilty verdict.
Levine told The U.S. Sun Mangione’s case has moved beyond Thompson’s murder and instead has incited the American public’s resentment and discontent towards health insurance companies.
“He’ll never be found guilty. Who primarily uses healthcare? Older people,” Levine, who served 10 years in federal prison on a swell of racketeering and securities charges, said.
“Who gets turned down for procedures and healthcare primary care? Older people. Who primarily sits on a jury? Older people.
“This is no longer about Luigi and what he did. It’s about the healthcare system.”
At his arraignment on Monday, at least two dozen female demonstrators filled the courtroom gallery in Lower Manhattan.
Alicia Thomas, a resident of the South Bronx, braved the frigid temperature to show her support for Mangione, whom she said was “innocent.”
She vented about her frustration with the healthcare industry to ABC News, recalling how she suffered from a postpartum hemorrhage after giving birth.
