Pushing for the death penalty while simultaneously claiming he's "inspiring others to violence" certainly is a choice. Oblivious to the high likelihood only making him a martyr to a lot of people. A good reminder of just how utterly unimpressive our ~~elites~~ rulers are.

Prosecutor: We believe the defendant is inspiring others to violence.

Judge: That is a serious allegation. You must be able to provide at least one example.

Prosecutor: Of course your honor. We feel inspired to kill the defendant and will be seeking the death penalty in this case.

I read the prosecutor lines in the voice of Blue Haired Lawyer

[–] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

That was the correct choice.

also labeling as a terrorist, even if they arnt going to charge him as such. they are trying to overcharge to see what sticks , its a common tactic .

Oh they are 100% going to find a reason to kill Luigi. The trial will be for show. They are probably talking to Hollywood directors right now trying to figure out how the trial should look.
