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.
I have an innocent son on Death Row for 30 years, we are getting ready for an Innocent Motion to be granted.
As like any family of friends of these type of sentencing, it's very hard.
Hang in there. Donna
I believe in second chances and I believe God created prisons for rehabilitation not a forever thing. My Son has been personally involved with this young man and first handily seen his rehabilitation and recovery from his mistakes and is excited to see him back into society flourishing. God bless this family and Brother and for second chances
This is not a case where someone should be denied the chance to prove their growth and redemption. Vardan Abramyan has spent nearly two decades taking responsibility, educating himself, and helping others heal. He deserves the opportunity to show the world the person he has become. Everyone deserves a second chance.
Everyone makes mistakes, and God gives us infinite chances so long as one fully repents. So why shouldn’t we give second chances? That is what God asks of us - to forgive as He forgives. Praying for your second chance!!
Vardan and his family are beyond caring, kindhearted, and welcoming. They support each other and those around them. I have got to know them all and love and support them. Vardan has dealt with immense trauma and has faced his actions. He has so much good within him that can be shared. I am in full support of his petition to commute his life without parole sentence.
