“It appears … that multiple employees at the Department of Justice may have violated Local Criminal Rule 23.1, and this Court’s order of April 25, 2025 specifically identifying the strictures of this rule,” U.S. District Judge Margaret M. Garnett wrote in her order on September 24 in response to the letter.
The rule stipulates that “non-lawyer personnel employed by a lawyer’s office or subject to a lawyer’s supervision” in a criminal case have a duty not to release an “opinion that a reasonable person would expect to be disseminated by means of public communication” if there is a chance that the opinion will “interfere with a fair trial or otherwise prejudice the due administration of justice.”
They are nowhere near to having it that much together at the moment with the facial recognition and bullshit.
Mangione is not the guy that did this. Facial recognition is far from perfect. And cops lie. You should presume everything they say about anything is lie which it is.
I can’t speak to whether they have the right guy or not, but it certainly seems like they only had illegally obtained data suggesting it was him, and then decided to arrest him anyway by planting some stuff in his backpack. So far they haven’t disclosed any admissible evidence, considering the backpack broke chain of custody.
That is what I am saying too when they came out everything they said was bullshit. A Manifesto, somebody writing about how health insurance sucks after health insurance executive gets popped? A gun consistent with the ability to fire a 9 mm bullet? There are are more of those in the United States than mangione’s age and demographic group. The pictures from the scene do not mark match up. What else some fighting a candy wrapper or is something that could have been planted after the fact. If they had real evidence they would have condemned him and public opinion right away.
Also around half of murders in NYC are solved (by that it means someone was arrested and charged, not necessarily convicted). Despite this widespread video surveillance. It makes me wonder what is the point of all that if their crime resolution rate is that low.
