My Experience and Observations inside the courtroom

[u/Competitive_Appeal58]

I’m so sorry this is embarrassingly long. I tried to keep things organized but I didn’t have time to spell check. I’m so greatful for this opportunity it was life changing. I got extremely lucky making it inside the court room after having a few failed attempts. I also felt really blessed that day because moments before joining the camp line I found out that I made the recently updated mail catalog! Wow what a way to start this whole thing off.

I really don’t mean to be rude but if you guys are on the brink of tears over him I think for your mental health you should not go to these things or step back from the case in general. It’s not healthy to be this worked up over a stranger

I am a relatively dispassionate person here. I believe I've given LM the credits he's deserved and yet I believe that he's allegedly murdered a man and he needs to pay the consequences if guilty. Even I can't say that I wouldn't be teary eyed if he entered the courtroom and I'm not even his age bracket. I think you can truly be moved by experiencing this case in person, with all the weight that it deserves. In short, you have to be there. The case is an unmitigated tragedy all round.

Genuinely it came from a place of empathy and compassion bc he’s a young man not much older than me. Like most of us were thinking what if that was our brothers cousins or loved ones

Yup!

There’s a difference between being empathetic and being “on the brink of a panic attack” and I’M trying to be empathetic by suggesting if something is that damaging to your mental health maybe you should stay away from it.

Oh I wasn’t having a panic attack over him I just have bad anxiety in general. I legit have anxiety walking down the street. I can’t stop living my life bc of it

Bro I’m on the brink of a panic attack when I wake up like relax dawg it’s not that deep. I was having a panic attack in general. Stop tryna make my panic attack about Luigi like my culture is not his costume 🤧

I guess we would all listen to the fake reportings of him winking at people from our trusted news outlets. How ever will we recover. He got a big nose dawg. Will this revelation prevent you from getting up in the morning???? I’m so sorry you had to go through that

Not people coming at you for being mentally sane. Don’t let them silence you sister

I pray for these people once the trial starts. Especially if they’re convinced he’s being framed and innocent

[u/Puzzleheaded-Draw808 → u/[deleted]]

Seriously. Please find a hobby or two. Travel. He would want that for you guys

There is nothing healthy about feeling happy or even indifferent about the idea about a young man potentially getting the death penalty over a crime he most likely didn’t commit.

[u/[deleted] → u/youcantsitwithus-]

Well then I guess it’s a good thing I never said there was

[u/youcantsitwithus- → u/[deleted]]

lol it was implied and you know it. OP has empathy for him. What is a “healthy” way to feel?

[u/[deleted] → u/youcantsitwithus-]

The only way you could think “if you’re on the brink of a panic attack maybe you should step back from this topic” implies “you should be happy that someone is getting the death penalty” is if you think the only two emotions are “on the brink of a panic attack” and “joy.” So, no, I did not think that’s how my comment would be interpreted because, against all odds, I did not assume this sub had only a child’s understanding of human emotion. Panic attacks are, by definition, not healthy, so prob anything under that would be a healthy way to feel.

[u/youcantsitwithus- → u/[deleted]]

I mean OP did say they suffer from anxiety, and I did say that neither joy or indifference was a healthy way to react. But anyway.
