And somehow they manage to go lower:

I dunno, a malicious prosecution seems noteworthy.

The family probably doesn't see a ton of other avenues to generate income. Can any of them work in public facing businesses any time soon?

You’re supporting a guy that killed two people and is now a mutant figurehead for whatever far right notions you have. He’s still an idiot kid. And championing His mind being warped by all that and the fact that he murdered people and got away with it.

It’s disgusting, but you do you.
I think its perfectly fine to shoot someone who tries to wrest away your weapon, uses potentially lethal force against you, or points a gun at you, especially when you instigate nothing.

Maybe in your weird euro land, you are restricted to 'proportional' force or having a duty to retreat, but those are dumb and benefit the aggressor.

I don't want to live in a country where if you 'provoke' violent, unstable people into attacking you through your legal actions, you have to take a beating for not having the psychic ability to foresee what might trigger them. This is what the prosecutor argued. Take a beating from the child rapist.
We all know he wasn’t instigating nothing.

Instigating in the mind of severly disturbed individuals, sure. Instigating in a reasonable person's mind? How? Walking around calmly? Putting out fires? Rendering aid?

If the AR causes you issues, take it up with WI. He would have taken a beating or worse without it, seems prudent as he couldn't legally conceal carry anything.

There was a panel of lawyers livestreaming the trial and they (among others) nicknamed the husky prosecutor (Kraus) lunchbox. They had some other nicknames for the other prosecutor (Binger). Correct me if I am mistaken Bi3.

PBS and other networks provided a raw* livestream and other groups used that to add commentary.

*someone in the courtroom was manually adjusting mic gains the entire time, muting things not part of the record and whatnot.

If you need 100 hours or so of the trial and commentary, they can be found here: https://youtube.com/c/RekietaLaw

They were all decided this was self defense before the trial started, so...

If they ever livestream a high profile trial in your general vicinity I hope you'll return the favor.

Lol

GoFundMe have cancelled all the fundraisers for his legal costs.

Lol.


Can the families of his victims take civil cases against him now?

Have you ever read past a headline in your life?

Gofundme explains why they canceled fundraisers when he was charged. Gofundme trying to explain their past acts.

Edit: In your legal system, are fees paid only at the conclusion of the trial?

Gofundme didn't transfer him much or anything of the initial attempts.

He eventually got funded through other, less established sites, and the lawyer that posted his bond is eligible to get it reimbursed to him personally even though he is no longer involved in the case. That last bit is something to chuckle about. His shitty godawful first lawyer has a claim to the 2 million dollar bond that got posted.

They’re in a panic to explain their position. It’s hilarious. And tucker fuckface having a meltdown on his show because they did it. We definitely engage in different media schoolboy but that’s obvious.

Why? The protests have all been super peaceful and chill. Why would it be any different this time?
