at what point are all expenses covered and we're just paying for the lawyer's second yacht?
I dont think you know how the american legal system works
Someone (the state, unitedhealthcare, or just about anyone) will just sue him over and over again for the most ridiculous reasons until he has no money left or he commits suicide. There are no precautions for that scenario, so it will very likely happen.
Res judicata...
... are you serious? And you think I don't know the legal system? What makes you think he's ever going to walk? And why are you talking about theoretical legal expenses decades down the line?
Not sure why you think this, they’d need a lawsuit with merits and standing. And if you do it enough there wrong way, the court can absolutely protect whoever it is you’re suing or they can counter sue.
Or even more realistically, Luigi can make his court appearances and ignore the lawsuits. At some point paying a lawyer to harass people with no money isn’t worth it. You can also waste their time as much as they waste yours and cost them money. Just get a cheap lawyer and tell them you’ll pay them to waste as much of their time as possible and it works. Your case may take 5-10 years to resolve that way.
Or you can just leave the country. Which sucks but it’s better than being harassed all the time and bankrupt.
Lol, what kind of nonsense is "Hey, famous on-camera assassin of the elite: just emigrate?"
To where? You want him to go join Snowden as a hostage of the Russian state, trotted out for PR statements?
Obviously, Luigi is an innocent man, but that doesn't mean immigration is going to approve him.
It’s not nonsense at all, you can move to another country to make them try to sue you internationally which most of the time they won’t bother with. That and they’d have to track you down in the new country, it complicates things for them more than for you. Even just moving to Canada is a significant legal hurdle for them.
And I’m saying this post-trial not currently or as a criminal. If he’s found guilty, yeah he’d have to go to Russia. But if he’s found innocent and they’re pestering him, he has options is all I’m saying.
Just because you are uneducated on a topic doesn't make it nonsense.
