Good point. If I'm not mistaken, court juries can still pass a jury nullification for Luigi Mangione, right?

I’m honestly surprised he did that. If I was him I would not trust the state to uphold its end of the plea bargain. I’d much rather take my chances with a jury.

He didn't get a bargain either.

It was to get the NY charges dropped. Which is stupid as fuck, double jeopardy should not be allowed

I already thought Luigi was a fall guy, but that kinda sealed the deal for me.
