Personally: no & yes. For the latter, a legitimate court of law ought to laugh at this case. But that’s not what he is facing.
The subject came up in conversation, so I figured I would take the temperature here.

It’s also crucial to point out that the chain of custody of “his backpack” was utterly fucked - the cop in question apparently started searching the bag at the McD’s, then just chucked it in her car, drove back to the station, and “continued the search there”. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
Combine this with how DESPERATELY they tried to portray him as a super dangerous criminal, as well as how some of the surveillance footage of him is like… kinda obviously not him, and I’m extremely suspicious that he was just a guy who fit the description and they pinned it on him.
But also, even if he actually did it, if I were on the jury, I’d vote to acquit.
From the motion filed yesterday by Luigi’s lawyers, it seems like this is the avenue they’re taking showing reasonable doubt about the events surrounding the search of his backpack.
