There is no evidence this is an official donation fund

    Just FYI give send go is a Christian fund raising site that supports January 6th rioters, and it sounds like they are going to use the donation money for other cases. I disputed the charge on my card and got it refunded after I learned that

    I’m pretty sure the lawyer said he wasn’t interested in accepting donations. I’d be wary of scams. Just be careful.

    As per this reddit post, just FYI:

    His full name is registered with the state of PA as: LUIGI MANGIONE.

    Inmate Number QQ7787.

    Currently at SCI Huntingdon (yes HUNTINGDON)

    Address for mail: LUIGI MANGIONE, QQ7787, SCI Huntingdon, PO Box 33028, St Petersburg, FL, 33733

    All mail is scanned by a third-party and then a copy is provided to them, so don’t even think about sending something “extra”.

    To send money (everyone needs money in jail, even $10 goes a long way) you have to go through JPay. And again, need to use his name, LUIGI MANGIONE, and inmate number QQ7787

    DOB is 05/06/1998

    If anyone that’s done time recently in PA sees something is missing in this info, please leave a comment.

    The thing holding back these donation funds is verification that they’re actually for Mangione’s defense. “The December 4th Legal Committee” could just be a scam.

    I’ve never heard of “GiveSendGo”, and who is d4legalcomm@gmail.com (the email address listed on the GiveSendGo page)? The fact that it’s some random Gmail is kinda sketchy. Are we sure this is legit?

            You must know health insurance has a contract with pages of what is covered what is not. But cool, jump on the popular bandwagon for upvotes.

              Yeah, and King George III had all sorts of shit written down that people in governing roles agreed to. People under tyranny were pretty upset and tried diplomacy back then as well. Violence is what eventually solved it, and the people that went through that wanted to make sure violence was always an option, hence the 2nd amendment. Anyone, Republican or Democrat, that says otherwise is just wrong.

              It’s akin to saying one can always choose a different power company if they don’t like the terms. Most people get the health insurance through an employer. The choices you get are minimal if any.

              Unless you’re suggesting the best way to avoid conflict is just don’t get sick. Which is another level of wow.

              I don’t think recalling 15 pages of legal jargon is on someone’s mind when they need emergency medical care. But hey, they totally deserved it for taking an ambulance instead of driving themselves to the nearest in-network hospital 90 minutes away /s

      I have been called a bootlicker for saying I think he probably killed Thompson. This is what actual bootlicking looks like

        And killing Thompson is the whole reason people elevate him. If Luigi Mangione is actually just some random dude getting his McD’s after working on his fan-fiction manifesto and printing out copycat fake IDs for lols, then the story isn’t really about Luigi.

        Hey, don’t lump people like me together with the bootlickers. Being a massive instance, you’ll see a lot more stupid views coming from .world overall, but it’s not representative of the userbase like with lemmygrad or the other political instances
