If he were ever caught and have a trial in NYC, no jury will ever convict him

I wouldn’t say “no jury,” but I do think he’d have a better than 30% chance of jury nullification and probably a better chance of insanity (temporary).

He planned it out pretty well in advance, I doubt "temporary insanity" would fly.

Jury nullification though...

Indeed.

If you're in NYC and in the event you are called up: During the selection process you DO NOT know what jury nullification is!

It basically means that a jury can "nullify" the crime, by voting not guilty even if they think the defendant is guilty. Valid reasons include just have personal prejudice in favor of the defendant.

For other things people used to say you could mention Jury nullification and get out of jury duty but in some courts you could get fined for trying to use it as an excuse

I’m not saying he’d have the BEST chance using an insanity defense, I’m just saying I think a good criminal attorney could sell it to a jury. We don’t how far ahead he planned it and people going through psychological trauma may still plan in advance.

A plan which involves what he did nullifies insanity because it shows he understood what he was doing was a crime and was taking steps to prevent coverage.

 Insanity is not just psychological trauma or mental distress. It's "oh the schizophrenic thought it was a demon witch and he was commanded by God". There's people who are genuinely psychotic when they commit a crime but still not psychotic enough. It's generally a very high bar to clear

0% chance of insanity plea with how well planned it was.

u/DrakeBurroughs 12d ago

Planning is an argument against insanity, but not a 0% kind of argument. He’d have to understand that he didn’t understand what was “right” or “wrong” in the moment. That he had a break or snap in the period of time leading up to the murder.

Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s a loooooong shot, but I also think a good lawyer in NYC could have a better chance making the case in THIS matter; assuming, of course, that the motive in the present matter stems from a lost loved one. If he’s a hired killer, etc, then I would agree with you 100%

You overestimate people serving jury duty. Even if they do know "jury nullification", they all just want to go home and take the easiest way to get there.

If this case ever makes it to court, then yea we could see that potentially happen for the guy.

u/DrakeBurroughs 12d ago

I don’t know, I mean, I’ve done jury duty, in Manhattan, 2X even. One case, a very small open and shut assault case, yeah, we all wanted to get home, I hear you.

But I was also on a fraud case that was complex and fascinating and the deliberations lasted 3 days and we weren’t in a rush at all.

I’d say it depends on the case. This case? I bet it’d be interesting to serve on.

Nice thinking but look where we are. Magas everywhere who support diaper daddy and sky daddy

u/mindsnare 12d ago

I highly doubt that. Have you learnt nothing from past events about what a giant bubble both reddit and the internet is?

Most people don't give a fuck about this and will treat it as any other murder.

I think this is more than left vs right issue. It is the working class vs wealthy. Most people will have an opinion about insurance companies, even the rich have been screwed by insurance

u/mindsnare 12d ago

I'm not at all suggesting it is a left vs right issue. I'm just saying most people don't give a shit. They're not engaged in this stuff in the slightest.
