Death penalty is not an appropriate solution. Murder is never justified. People who do wrong things should take responsibility for what they have done by reflecting on it in prison rather than being killed. If you are Christian or Catholic, I hope you take into consideration that only God can dictate who has life and is the only one who is able to take it.
Luigi Mangione stood up for the American people by pointing out the problem of corruption that is in our healthcare industry, and like every other citizen, he deserves the right to a fair trial. I believe that justice can't be achieved through executing him - it would be inhumane when you see the context of what he went through, and how he was mistreated and manipulated by the people in power. He is innocent until proven guilty!
Death penalty is NOT the answer for this, regardless of whether he is guilty or not.
Death penalty is just a form of revenge, it is NOT justice. Luigi requires rehabilitation, mental health intervention, and legal mercy. His act was committed out of frustration with our healthcare system, which has exploited the American people for far too long, denying treatments for people in dire need, and extracting vast wealth without providing services equivalent to how much the people pay into it. Luigi is NOT the villain here, despite his actions. The true villain is our government not passing free healthcare and insurance companies denying essential healthcare for those in need.
If anything, he should get a jail sentence and a chance at parole. Death is NOT the answer, and mercy is how you show our justice system is NOT a system of corrupt retribution willing to "get even".
Regardless of what was done, the death penalty is NOT the answer, and death is NEVER an answer to anything outside of a war based situation.
This is such a sad demonstration on failure of our system, I have known this family for many years, grandmother,father and 2 young boys , super intelligent, Wonderful children, I knew of some of the emotional trauma thru grandmother. When the unthinkable happened we were shocked, as a nurse I realize psychological and emotional problems can be difficult to fully understand, what I can't understand is how a young man can be condemned to prison when it is obvious he had emotional problems. As well he committed this when only 16 how then is he being treated as an adult. Please consider this young man's emotional and psychological state in weighing your final decisions.
The system repeatedly fails the most vulnerable. Mental health is so often stigmatized, but in reality it is just can important as physical health. If the goal of the criminal justice system is really rehabilitation and not just punishment then in this situation the mental health of the defendant but be taken into account and he must get the help he needs. Those with mental disorders suffer greatly in prisons.
Please give Daniel the mental health care he needs. It is the just & humane thing to do. The system had failed this young man & his family. Please do the right thing & put him in a facility where he can get the help he needs!
The people must be properly represented and have a voice. There has been too much corruption and rogue rulings with no accountability and consequences that have destroyed families while muting the voice of the people. They have forgotten their oaths and who they are working for which is the taxpayers who should decide on judges with integrity that will be seated on the bench! We the people have had enough and are taking a stand for change. We the people should never have to be fearful to take a stand for what is right and against corrupt practices that discredits the public’s trust of our judicial system!
