Jury nullification.
He's not getting a jury. They're going to cut him down and say he shot himself so his legacy will be that he was a coward . At least that will be the attempt but it seems like everyone will know better
This exactly my thought. They will do everything to make him crazy or suicidal.The good thing is that someone leak what he wrote on the casing. This makes it clear he is socially motivated. Hopefully, if they ever close in, he will have an online stream up.
He should walk naked into a major TV studio carrying nothing, ask them to call the cops. Force them to accept a surrender.
Hangs self in cell when camera is broken.
"He was in the middle of sexually assaulting the news crew."
I still don't think the smiling picture is him. Unless he ditched the backpack and jacket, got different ones and then ditched the backpack again.
Americans really need to google these words if they haven't already.
Most Americans didn't see any crime...
You are assuming that this saint protector of the working people could be presumably guilty of a crime
Oh no, I'm not talking about this case. Just in general, it'd be good of Americans to inform themselves on that.
In a private browsing window because if they know you know about it you will never serve on a jury.
Good luck going though the search history of every single person up for jury selection.
Also, a "private window" won't lean jack shit, just means your local personal files won't save what you do. Cookies and Google and whatnot still do.
If you want to be anon, use TOR with VPN or at least a VPN.
I don't think its helpful to combine a Tor and VPNs in most situations. Tor itself should be fine
It pretty much is the VPN as far as I've understood it.
OK, my bad, I'm not too well versed in the subject
thanks
Second link seems to be down.
Vpn with tor can hide the fact that you’re using tor from your isp
Yep, it's gotten me out of jury duty twice
If people with intelligence and empathy skip out on jury duty, that leaves idiots and sociopaths to judge the accused.
Well unfortunately I have a job and a mortgage. If the trial goes longer than the few days that my employer is forced to pay me, and I'm stuck with the $50 a day the state pays, I'm fucked. I don't consider living on the street a civic duty.
That's fair and I've had to bail on jury duty for the same reason, although I was able to participate once.
You have to say it six times in a row in front of a mirror with the lights off.
