“This is completely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people and their lived experience.”

Difference is that Epstein got whacked and his /clients/ let it happen.
Luigi has real fans, who see what he did as a reflection of their own discontent.
If something happens to him in jail, I believe that would still count as the aforementioned martyrdom.
Yup. Epstein getting killed was inevitable, but it’s not like he had many fans; child molesters don’t tend to win popularity contests (unless it’s running for the highest seat in the country…) His death had people upset, but only because it meant he wouldn’t be able to testify against all the billionaires. He was only working against the billionaires because the prosecutors were forcing him to do so.
But Luigi is a symbol of someone actively working against the billionaires, and killing him will turn him into a martyr.
