It only takes of working man to get on it to make it flop
And here's your 12 jury members.......
Oh, it's Mark Cuban, Mark Zuckerburg, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Rupert Murdoch,
.........I could keep this joke going if I used google, but is it sad that I could name 6 people by memory just by using the parameters "Rich asshole who would have no empathy for the general public, and would absolutely convict"?
it would have to be 12 CEOs but they deff aint got to be proper owner oligarch... just scrape some middling f500 roaster with some "nonames"
but yes valid point... but defense can generally strike some of these.
this guy going to need proper counsel, I am assuming fun raising won't be an issue. he deserves the best.
coupled with proper PR campaign on socials since TV will try to destroy him.
this jury must not convict because the glove don't fit hehe
Plenty of lawyers, at least some of them talented, will offer to defend him for free.
It could make their career.
defense of this scale will require several million dollars, nobody will do that for free.
also, defending this guy will make you enemy of the owner class. top talent will opt out.
You should find more about gates than the name

The Ballad of Bill Gates | BEHIND THE BASTARDS
Part Two
I am not going to watch 70 minutes movie, but according to brief skimming through the discussion it's about business practice of the Microsoft from times of windows 3.11
I am talking about his today's undeniable philantropic work and the fact is he is really far from the rest of the people on your list.
People are allowed to evolve and if every billionaire in the world would evolve I'm the same direction he did, world would be better place.
It's a podcast and you can listen while doing other things. 70 minutes isn't very long.
You can deny his recent philanthropic work because his libertarian mentality corrupts it. He helped fund covid 19 vaccine research, but also demanded that the patents not be released, so profit could be made. This is in direct contrast to the lead scientist of the poli vaccine opening it up for anyone to make, comparing the ownership of a vaccine to trying to own sunlight.
While there's evidence that Gates did not participate in Epstein's parties, he did know about and choose to stay silent.
Gates is a full blown elite larping as a humanitarian when the role of his foundation should be occupied by a tax funded gov org.
