“This is completely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people and their lived experience.”

    Yup. Epstein getting killed was inevitable, but it’s not like he had many fans; child molesters don’t tend to win popularity contests (unless it’s running for the highest seat in the country…) His death had people upset, but only because it meant he wouldn’t be able to testify against all the billionaires. He was only working against the billionaires because the prosecutors were forcing him to do so.

    But Luigi is a symbol of someone actively working against the billionaires, and killing him will turn him into a martyr.
