One year after the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, the court is now weighing whether police violated alleged gunman Luigi Mangione’s Miranda rights.

    Alright, they do call the notes that, but calling that gun “the murder weapon” is inappropriate. It robs Mangione of his presumption of innocence.

    Police searched Mangione’s backpack during the course of that arrest and found a 9 mm handgun and a notebook with potentially incriminating entries, among other items.

    I have a much bigger problem with calling that gun “the murder weapon” anyways. That’s the bigger issue of the two.

      I’m not a court of law. I don’t owe Mangione anything. Go argue your point to someone who cares.
