Mangione said during his arraignment, “I don’t know where all that money came from,” referring to “$8,000 in cash [and] $2,000 in foreign currency” that law enforcement claimed was on his person. Prosecution also referenced a “faraday bag” as part of their argument that Mangione engaged in “criminal sophistication”, while Mangione claimed the bag were merely “waterproof”. This was part of a larger argument to deny Mangione bail.
Edit: apologies for the TikTok, but I removed tracking from the URL and it comes from the official CNN TikTok.
It would be incredible if they fumbled the prosecution because the cops were overeager dipshits.
if the snitch doesn’t get the 60k and the NYPD fumbles the prosecution US faith in policing will be at an all time low. Should have hired literal pigs instead of high school bullies. Much more trainable.
