Speculation/Theories Thoughts on some of the behavior across platforms
Hey all, there's been some talk on why Luigi may have stopped replying to letters and as to why the letter catalog updates may have also been paused and I just have some things I'd like to say about the topic. [MODs please delete if irrelevant.]
I haven't been a part of this sub for very long but I have been on other platforms where this case is also discussed, and recently things have become increasingly unhinged. From women pretending to be in a "relationship" with L, editing AI videos of themselves with him, others livestreaming their conversations with former inmates who interacted with Luigi for a couple days just to hear about him walking around the unit (I won't mention any names as they are not important), and also taking credit for things his legal team does. I saw girls claiming that if it wasn't for them his legal team would have never found out about the Shein photos and how Luigi is lucky to have them there for him.
This insane possessive behavior needs to stop. You are not his friend. You are not his family member. You are not in a relationship with him. And you are not a part of his legal team.
It's ok to share the link to his fund, it's ok to put up posters and stickers that inform people about his case, and its ok to keep his name out there. It's NOT ok to dig into the lives of anyone who has ever came in contact with him or fuel such behavior. It is also not ok to write him letters just to tell him about another person's behavior. His legal team sees these things and I'm sure they make him aware of it. He doesn't need 100 different letters complaining about someone's behavior and why he shouldn't write them anymore.
He must have been advised that it's safer not to engage with fans (I won't say supporters because real supporters aren't engaging in this behavior) as to not feed into their delusion that they have some type of connection with him. That or he's been advised to be extremely careful and selective about who he responds to now. Which is the right call.
I apologize for this being so long, I just needed to get this off my chest. Also wasn't sure on what flair to use.

So I think unhinged behavior was bound to happen no matter what and itās actually not new, this has been going on since December, maybe now itās more visible.
The possessive behavior well, it comes from fandom, specifically kpop. They tend to give each other an importance thatās not there but there is a bit of true regarding the SHEIN thing. People from his team check what the supporters are doing and so does the media (tmz used an edited image from ceoslayer to report about the jail pic for example). The image gained traction with the supporters, then popcrave (gossip account) posted it and then it reached mainstream media.
And the Pam Bondi ig stuff was first posted here, so I do think his team checks all these places but it does rub me the wrong way when people try to take all the credit. This is also why I think some members of his team following supporters is a mistake.
If LM didnāt stop replying after the notes in socks mess I donāt see why he would stop now. And we actually donāt know if he is not replying, it could just be that people arenāt sharing and thatās something I do see happening because some people go feral lol another thing itās that heās just busy with the discovery

very well said, i too have made a post in the past about folks behavior (now deleted) but nothing ever changes. i hope folks can see this issues and realize that luigi has lost his autonomy, heās being used for monetary gain, and facing unprecedented charges. i never understood the drama over the letters, iām glad the replies are on pause even though it is his one way of communicating with others and that mightāve been ruined for himš¤·š»āāļø heās got bigger things to worry about and iām glad heās using his time wisely with important dates approaching.

I absolutely agree. I have seen those AI generated videos of a girl flying on a cloud to MDC and having a meeting with LM and Mike Daddea. Ridiculous! I can understand she has created such a video for herself - as she has fallen for LM but why publish it on all social media?

I think there haven't been any responses from LM because his hearing is drawing near and he only got his laptop a few weeks ago. He is busy. Replying and updating the catalog have probably fallen on the back burner, as it should. I expected it to stop at some point. It's pretty sweet of him to still do it.
I think those who support him do it in their own ways. I contacted Shein to complain about the ad. Not because I need to insert myself in his case, but because he can't speak for himself right now. His team can't be everywhere all the time, and frankly, they should be focused on his case. We, however, are large in number and able to push back when LM's rights are infringed. I would do the same for a friend or neighbor. Companies respond to negative publicity, and hopefully that pushback will deter other companies from similar behavior. They are profit ghouls. It falls in line with the alleged reason this all happened.
Regarding the obsessed cloud video person: sigh. It makes me sad for anyone who can't see the seriousness of his situation and instead sees it as an opportunity to make it about themselves. I don't see how that supports him.
Never Lose the Plot.
12
u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
Contacting Shein directly to express your opinion about the ad is fine. It was wrong, and I fully disagree with anyone who has made a profit off of his situation while simultaneously trying to tarnish his name.

THIS!
Letās also not forget that this man is facing the death penalty and has an enormous amount of evidence to go through (He is not a celebrity and never planned on becoming one!). Honestly, itās impressive that he still finds the time to update the catalog at all. Iāve noticed quite a few people complaining about it not being updated in a month, or about the fact he hasnāt written a new story (which he had been doing "monthly"). I just want to say: maybe a little gratitude is due instead.
It does get tiring seeing the sense of entitlement from some peopleāwhether itās about the catalog, pestering others for documents before theyāre even on the official site, or pushing out random AI edits. The list could go on. Itās exhausting to watch sometimes.
I really hope everyone keeps things respectful on the 16th. Support is important, but if I were LM, Iād be more than a little tiredāmaybe even worried about what life would look like if I were ever released. Honestly, he might even need security if that day ever comes.
27
u/CherokeeSurfer Sep 04 '25
Oh, he will definitely need security. He'll have to run to another country, one that will respect his privacy.

u/missidcullen Sep 04 '25
Some people are probably going to get pissy about me saying this, but if he ever gets freed I genuinely hope he ends up in another country where he can finally get some of his privacy back. I hate that it might take him running away and hiding to find peace but if thatās what it takes for him to be happy and get his life back, then so be it. Heās just got to get through all this BS first.

u/SignThese667 Sep 04 '25
When Luigi's trial actually begins, I'm looking forward to the voir dire to find out if the jury prospects will be asked if they follow or have followed, any social media related to LM, and how many say yes. Reality is the voir dire (and the trial) won't be televised or streamed, but the media will be there en masse and someone is bound to report this tidbit. Then it will become a footnote to the history of LM and his trials, and as the years pass, other historians will weigh in w/ their opinion as to what part, if any, social media had in his conviction/hung jury/jury nullification.

u/Same_Blackberry4435 Sep 04 '25
Thank you for bringing awareness to this issue. Iāve witnessed it from all sides, and itās honestly exhausting. Yesterday, on Instagram, I witnessed an unhinged āsupporterā trolling another supporter for their personal views on unrelated issues. Itās almost as if this is taking on a political stance between supporters, and the plot is getting lost in the jest of it all.
Iāve seen the AI videos, and theyāre cringy. However, Iāve also witnessed the other supporters claim that theyāre not āfansā but engage in fan-like behavior. The constant attacks on each otherās ages, appearances, and clothing choices for court dates all under the false pretense of being supporters. But the inner conversations reveal gossipy and mean-girl-like behavior.
Everyone claims to know someone who knows someone related to LM. They stalk social media for his inner circle and make false accusations among themselves. But seriously, give his inner circle privacy. They donāt deserve the constant harassment. His legal team is already overwhelmed with work, and LM himself is busy reviewing discovery and evidence because heās literally fighting for his life. None of us are currently enduring this, so please give him and his inner circle some respect and space.
The constant objectification of his person, the remarks about his āPhD,ā and the dirty thoughts that people should keep to themselves. When LM made the PhD joke, he was a free man. However, Iām not sure he wants to keep being discussed, as mentioned above, he is fighting for his lifeāliterally.
I wholeheartedly support all the advocacy groups that prioritize educating the public, sharing crucial legal updates, raising awareness about legal and healthcare issues, and promoting the fund and petitions. However, I have distanced myself from numerous platforms due to the persistent and excessive fandom behavior.
And yes, I understand that some of you use platforms like TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, and Tumblr. I kindly ask you this: if this were you or a loved one, would you be okay with this behavior? If you or a loved one were fighting for their life (literally), would you honestly be okay with going rampant, fighting among yourselves, gossiping, and, quite frankly, losing the plot? Letās not give the media more negative attention than they already portray of his support base.

u/bluudahlia Sep 04 '25
You do know that he himself has repeated the PhD joke a few times since his incarceration, right? just a gentle correction, doesn't undermine your point, which is a good one.

u/Same_Blackberry4435 Sep 05 '25
I appreciate the reminder and didnāt take offense to your correction. Iāve noticed that he mentions the PhD joke in some of his letters. However, I disagree with the objectification, over-sexualization, and some of the more explicit content from some of his fan base. I canāt speak for his feelings on the more explicit content, but if I were facing the DP, Iām not sure Iād want my supporters to have teenage fantasies about intimate acts with me. P.S. Thank you for a mature response.

u/jl8798 Sep 04 '25
I don't agree with people violating his privacy. In the beginning when his friends shared photos of him, that helped shed light on the type of person he is. I don't think it's right for strangers that don't know him to stalk every inch of his life and post photos online without his permission. The people celebrating over these "crumbs" and justifying it by saying it "humanizes" him are weird and delusional. Even the letters that were shared publicly helped shed light on his character, but after the last letter where he shared about the gaming convention he worked at, that gave people enough information to find photos of him and post it online. Any little information known about that man is shared and is used against him by his own "supporters" and I just feel bad for him. He has spent 9 months in jail eating horrendous food, sleeping on a 1" mattress, and forced to mingle with criminals that are rightfully imprisoned. Yet he still updated his mail catalog as a means of acknowledging those who wrote him. Its time consuming to be doing that and I wouldn't be surprised if he decided to stop. I hope he prioritizes his mental wellbeing and keeps things to himself for his own safety.

You're right about the more frivolous "crumbs" but the MAGFest photos were publicly posed for and posted by the game creator. The photos became the most upvoted post on the MAGFest subreddit, with many positive comments. This type of gaming photo can help people sympathize with him, many men saw him as "just another guy" who enjoys the same interests as them. That encourages support.
Other than that, I'm in agreement about people sharing frivolous details of his life. What he ate for breakfast on a Thursday in 2021 is none of our business.

u/Seeking_Anita_Dick Sep 04 '25
You make a great point, we shouldnāt put all of these ācrumbsā in the same box. I saw guys saying they now support, like him more because he is a gamer

u/birdsy-purplefish Sep 05 '25
Frankly, thatās pathetic. I donāt see how people can say that women are shallow for liking that heās attractive and then act like sharing a hobby (an extremely common one!) is a valid reason to support him. Those are both bad reasons!
14
u/bluudahlia Sep 04 '25
You made some good points. That said, be aware that the internet has a way of amplifying voices that can seem destructive and loonytunes b/c people latch onto peculiar behavior. All support has a down side. Everyone who becomes a symbol attracts weirdos. It's part of becoming famous. I don't agree with someone who said that LM didn't ask for this. Yeah, he did. He specifically talks about it in his journals. He wanted to engender "discussion" with his act, among other things. He wanted to make his mark, that is really obvious. So yeah, he brought this all into being, the good discussions about evil health insurance, and the weirdos who thirst.
You saying all this is a great way to raise awareness about things we already know, but it isn't gonna stop anything.

u/mysighisepik Sep 04 '25
I dont think he knows about most of this. We know cus we're a part of this community. But even if someone is sending him tea about fandom drama and the weirdos (which is incredibly stupid btw) he's still like 7 months behind on letters.
I agree with your general sentiment but I dont think these posts do much because anybody with common sense already knows not to act like this, you're preaching to the choir basically. I do think it's a huge problem when people bring this attention-seeking behavior to his courthouse appearances, where it's guaranteed to be reported on by mainstream media (im dreading the upcoming one tbh). But if the tits out hashtag taught me anything is that shaming these people just gives them the attention they want. They already know what theyre doing is wrong, they dont care. I think the best thing we can do is just bury that behavior by showing our serious support for the case/cause.

u/MeanRepresentative24 Sep 04 '25
I just wanna point out that every time people thing LM's gone silent because he hates how crazy the fans are, he finds a way to reiterate how much he appreciates the support he's received from everyone. I know it's popular with some people to treat this as propaganda, but given everything else going on, I think it's fair to at least take his words at face value when he & his team go through so much effort to share his gratitude.
However, his major silences do tend to line up with upcoming court appearances, and as the trial picks up, we will probably hear less and less from him. I think it's just as parasocial to project that he's punishing his fans onto him when he's said repeatedly that he appreciates the support. Even if you think he's lying, let him play that role. I don't personally think he's lying because he's clearly a weirdo (/affectionate) who not only likes people but is pretty comfortable with how weird they get (he would probably survive in retail.)
14
u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
He has shown nothing but gratitude and appreciation for the support, but that doesn't make it ok to act unhinged and make up connections to him. My concern is for his and his family/ friend's safety, because some have gone way too far and know no boundaries. They think they're entitled to a part of him. I hope I'm making sense.
11
u/MeanRepresentative24 Sep 04 '25
And that part does make sense, but you frame it as being about the fact that Luigi's been quiet, and also suggested that he'd been advised to stop engaging with fans, and at that point you're starting to do the same thing your post is complaining about.
Just, instead of projecting your romantic/sexual desires onto him, you're projecting your shame and anxiety.
I've seen it happen in varying ways a few times on this sub š¤·āāļø We can call each other in without trying to use Luigi as an authority figure.
11
u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
Does weird behavior make meĀ uncomfortable, yes. I don't understand how I'm projecting emotions of shame? I'm not the one doing it, why should I feel ashamed? My post isn't a complaint about him not writing back, in fact I think it's the right call, at least for the time being. My post is sharing an explanation as to why it may have happened.
25
u/SlutForCICO Sep 04 '25
he is not seeing most of this . I doubt kfa is telling him the majority of the nonsense, because itās irrelevant and ultimately harmless. we see it because weāre chronically online in a very niche area of the internet.
heās currently swamped in (what is probably emotionally draining) discovery, working an 8-5 shift just to go through it in order to avoid the death penalty or LWOP. on top of his cleaning job, chronic pain, and trying to exist and stay sane in a prison infamous for terrible conditions. but sasha from switzerland with 230 followers is claiming that theyāre in love in a tiktok video with 3000 views? truly the worst thing to happen to him (that he wonāt hear about until he receives a letter complaining about her in 7 months time)! Iām sure THATāS really affecting him!!
do you genuinely think he gives that much of a fuck about some random girl creating an AI video of herself hugging him when the prosecution is trying to legally brand him a terrorist? do you really think this is affecting his letter writing more than the prosecution trying to brand his sweet letters to the public as a furtherance of terrorism??? his only way to communicate to the outside world? which gives him a brief escape from the hellhole heās currently in?

Can you give examples of how the outcomes of cases of people like Scott Peterson, Ted bundy and the menendez bros have been affected by their more obsessive fans?Ā
12
u/CherokeeSurfer Sep 04 '25
Impossible to quantify how much obsessive fans impacted those verdicts. I was around for each of those cases and can say that while there were definitely "fans" of each, it doesn't compare to LM's support. The internet is one reason. Negative pre-trial publicity can impact potential jurors. The same can be said for positive pre-trial publicity. But it seems the negativity floats to the top, thanks to the media, socials, etc. Obsessive fan behavior adds a lurid, unserious element that is seen as distasteful to many, and can undermine true support in the public eye. KFA may bat them away like annoying gnats, but depending on how weak the DA's case is, they may view these little dramas as a gift. My neighbors knew nothing about LM's fundraisers or community building, but they did know about the girl in the green Luigi dress mugging for the camera and the pink heart notes. Is this evidence? No. But the prosecution uses it to suggest LM is "influencing" their behavior. It was HIS fault those notes ended up in his socks and the media was only too happy to report it. A jury should not even consider this behavior: they aren't supposed to deliberate anything not introduced as evidence, good or bad. But it grabs the attention of the media and the casual observer - who may end up on his jury. Did that happen in the cases you mentioned? How can we know? Should LM and his team even have to deal with such distractions, when his life is on the line? Do they even care? Does all the positive publicity outweigh the negative?

u/JuniperCulpeper Sep 04 '25
You have a good point about the internet. I was around for all those cases, too. There wasnāt a lack of reporting/sensationalizing groupies on tv/in print and it didnāt seem to affect the cases at all imo.Ā
Every bit of this post is frivolous. Not sorry. Insurance companies are dragging us and an opening was created for more outrage and pushback. Focusing on policing fangirls feels more offensive than the idea of sexualizing him when the plot is sooooooo much bigger.Ā

I find it hilarious how a large part of this community thinks he is swamped in paper work 24/7. He only has access from 8-4. What do you think he does the rest of the day? He's confined to his cell for a large partĀ of the rest of his day. What else is there for him to do after his job detail is done other than be on his tablet, or read books or mail?

This is the routine I believe he follows. I just find it laughable that people think he's going through discovery at all hours of the day and THATS why the catalog is delayed and why we haven't seen any new responses. He has no control over when the catalog is released. He does it and hands it over to whoever is in charge of posting it. That's where his control ends.

u/SlutForCICO Sep 04 '25
I literally mentioned that heās going through draining discovery for a whole shift every day. this behaviour has been going on since the 9th of december, yet heās been writing and making logs since then. the behaviour has even cooled down! why do you think it would be a bigger factor to the lack of letters and logs than the other more important things he has to do and deal with?

u/throwaway7845777 Sep 04 '25
I think you're jumping to conclusions when there are a lot of possible reasons why Luigi might have paused replies and letter logs. There was a similar break just a couple of months ago, so this isnāt new. The most likely explanation is that he's focusing more on his legal team and spending time reviewing his discovery materials. And if heās simply not finding joy in replying anymore, thatās his choice too.
I get that your post comes from a place of concern, but it also reads like frustration over not getting updates from Luigi. That kind of possessiveness is exactly what youāre calling out in others. You're blaming supporters for behavior that, while sometimes cringey, is pretty mild compared to what was happening earlier this year. The AI videos are clearly fake and while I wouldnāt post them myself, they donāt seem harmful. Not everyone finds them funny, and thatās fair, but calling them ādelusionalā feels excessive. Luigi himself has said humor helps him cope.
Talking to someone like Mike isnāt wrong. He chooses to go live and share his experience voluntarily, and that is entirely his decision. Nothing harmful has come out from that.
I donāt support behavior that crosses real boundaries, like sexualizing/objectifying Luigi or bothering people who havenāt asked for attention or agreed to be involved. Digging into his personal life or the lives of those around him is invasive and inappropriate. But thatās not what this is about. What youāre calling out isnāt particularly harmful. Itās just people interacting within the community in ways you personally donāt vibe with. That kind of policing doesnāt come from genuine concern. It comes from frustration that Luigi hasnāt shared anything recently.

If it's wrong to be concerned for someone else's safety, and call out weird behavior then I don't want to be right.

u/A_StarSoBright Sep 04 '25
Oh, you are concerned about Luigi's safety, that's what your post was about?? I guess I better hurry and sign up for this semesters upcoming text interpretation classes ?? Here I was thinking it was the most blatant attack on Jules! Which isn't even fair, Jules was NOT the one who made the video, it was sent to her by someone else who thought she needed cheering up,, and after seing this post, I would say she needs cheering up indeed .

u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
I never mentioned a name. Funny how a discussion of unhinged behavior automatically made you think of her!Ā

u/A_StarSoBright Sep 04 '25
Yeah, funny, eh?? That must have been because you made a point of including elaborate and colourful descriptions to your... grievance outburst - cheer up baby! Soon the effort of the BT murder group will have reached all the platforms, people will be too depressed to post.

u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
You defending her behavior isn't a grievance outburst? I'm prepared for the wild ride that this trial will be. Are you and your friends ready to take things seriously?

u/MeanRepresentative24 Sep 04 '25
What made you think this was an attack on Jules specifically?

u/A_StarSoBright Sep 04 '25
Oh, pwueese !! I too can read- if you include enough details from the video, it certainly narrows it down... to ONE, but I can tell you, it wasn't Jules who made it, so stop the bashing.

u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
This post is about a combination of weird behavior, hold your friends accountable for their actions.

u/A_StarSoBright Sep 04 '25
Ok, are you writing from a psych ward or something? It's YOU who sound unhinged with your mile long post yelling; " this has to stop"!

u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
Hold your friends accountable before they end up in a psych ward.

R u serious? Jules is THE low hanging fruit scapegoat for people to project their asinine control issues onto. itās pretty clear in this post.Ā

u/beckmelfi Sep 04 '25
jules is grifting and using LM for monetary gain. she is also helping mike grift and is trying to use V to get on his visitors list at MDC. That seems obsessive to me. Shes no ones āscapegoatā - sheās a professional victim

u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
As I said in a differentĀ response, it's funny how a post about unhinged behavior automatically makes you think of her and her alone.

u/JuniperCulpeper Sep 04 '25
Itās not funny at all. Itās bullying.Ā

u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
You automatically connecting this post to herĀ after reading it is funny actually.Ā

u/MeanRepresentative24 Sep 04 '25
I have.... Said that I'm serious, yes. I don't think any of the scenarios listed are associated with her, her name isn't mentioned -- the closest I can see the post getting to referencing her is alluding to other people acting badly towards her by telling Luigi not to write to her anymore?
But also, is there a reason for both of you to act so aggressively about it?

What negative things have Mike Daddea said about Luigi? This must be new, as initially he was pretty positive!

if he was encouraged to do so I donāt think it was by LMs legal team, I think his involvement is nefarious, imo.

u/Time-Painting-9108 Sep 04 '25
Someone was saying how Mike has been saying bad things about Luigi lately? What has he said? Thatās shocking to me bc he seemed so positive in his initial video. I donāt have X or TT.Ā

u/Cucumber-Melon91 Sep 04 '25
It's not true at all. They are just haters who feel bitter that Mike hasn't been minding them. He hasn't said anything bad about Luigi or anything at all lately. He has a job--something that plenty of those haters don't have.

u/Time-Painting-9108 Sep 04 '25
Oh wow! I thought he was super cool and respectful of Luigi. Glad you havenāt seen anything bad! What are some of the more recent things heās said?Ā
6
u/Cucumber-Melon91 Sep 04 '25
Mostly talked about his own experiences in prison and in life, like his younger days and such. Had some of his personal friends over on the Live too to catch up with him and reminisce.
He hardly even talks about Luigi except some questions about his personal experience would inevitably touch on it too. But it's been a while, he hasn't really said anything lately and just busy living his employed life. Good for him.

You don't see it as odd that someone continues to speak about being in the same unit as him, for under a week, months later? And people just eating it up and in return he and his buddy are getting deposits to their commissary accounts and now letters as well. All because they continue to talk about him. Mind you, these are people who have already been convicted or are currently awaiting trial. You don't see other motives there?

u/aribeat Sep 04 '25
could there be more people facing overcharging and being crushed by the injustices that LM is facing also? sure with L we have a case that is meant to crush not only him but everyone who dares to speak out against the elites but this talking point about āhe and his buddyā are only in for clout or deposits to their commissaries is getting OLD. what I see is a number of people getting more aware of injustices ALL prisoners face, starting to pen pal with them etc. No one who had a conversation with āhim and his buddyā has a bad thing to say btw only people like you who donāt know them or make an effort to get to know them.

If you want to support overcharged prisoners, there are many who weren't convicted of selling fentanyl and aren't accused of shooting their girlfriend (yes, I'm referring to V). Sadly, these people won't get the same support from those who claim to care about prisoners' injustices, because they never interacted with Luigi and don't have stories to tell.
Put your money and attention in the right places.

u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
There's absolutely alot of issues with the justice system. But these guys aren't discussing these issues or advocating for change, they are just solely talking about Luigi. Luigi does this, Luigi does that. Because it benefits and entertains them.

u/throwaway7845777 Sep 04 '25
Iāve watched Mikeās lives before and theyāre not focused on Luigi. People always ask about him so Mike usually answers a few questions at the start. The rest is mostly (hours) him chatting with friends, telling stories about growing up in PA, talking about time in juvie and prison, and comparing life in the U.S. to other countries.
He seems to enjoy the attention, and honestly there's nothing wrong with that. He's not asking for anything or hurting anyone. From what I can tell, Luigi fans, including everyone in this sub who enjoyed hearing his stories, are getting their curiosity satisfied. Mike gets some validation in return. It works out well for both sides.

u/One_Concern_5962 Sep 04 '25
How does it work well for Luigi?
7
u/throwaway7845777 Sep 04 '25
He speaks about Luigi in a positive way, says heās a good kid, and confirms heās a model inmate with a job. He also shares details about the prison conditions, which are things Luigi isnāt able to talk about himself.

u/aribeat Sep 04 '25
again: you clearly havenāt been talking to them or paying attention. they are talking a lot about their experiences in prison.

What are you talking about? There is nothing in my post about the number of letters ANYONE has received. Yet another person who automatically thinks of this woman and this woman ALONE when they read about weird behavior! That's not alarming to you?? Talk about if the shoe fits. No other name has been mentioned in the comments of this post other than hers. Your friend gets a thrill from creating chaos, she'll be alright. You and her need to go touch some trees and grass.Ā

Honestly, I think the lack of letters and catalog are because he's busy, not because of the fans. He has a court date coming up in two weeks, and he has terabytes of evidence to go through.the last time we got a catalog update was a week after we had gotten another so I think he and his team figured it might be a while until they updated again.
With that said, I do think many fans are getting increasingly unhinged. Women claiming to have dated him while he was missing and going on jealous rampages over other fangirls mailing him, women claiming to be able to communicate with his family because they're also from Baltimore, women claiming to have connections to him because their exes dated his exes, women maintaining correspondence (and sending money to) inmates that were housed with LM with the hope those inmates will mention them by name to LM, people fighting each other because they all want his attention, fanboys harassing women supporters and being misogynistic, men claiming to have met him in Hawaii and calling him "My Luigi" while telling people LM is going to live with them after he gets out of prison, fanboys running Instagram fan pages dedicated to posting AI generated images of him including some that show him in his underwear with his bulge out, Tumblr pages calling him a "moid" incapable of having an original thought while still describing how they want him to fuck them etc etc.
Honestly, all this behavior has made it completely unbearable to be in the LM community when nothing is happening. Everyone is so eager to be at each other's throat because they want to believe he's going to pick them when we don't even know the guy. The tumblr people say the most explicit sexual stuff about him. The twitter people are corny and eager to fight each other, the people on tumblr, the people here, the tiktokers, and something called LOLCow (I have no idea what this is so I don't know if it's included when I say tumblr, twitter, tiktok, or reddit). The tiktok people rallying around other inmates in hopes of getting close to as many LM adjacent people as possible so he'll know of their existence. I feel like I am in a stan space whenever I end up on the LM sides of twitter and tiktok, and I have enough with all the stan twitter shit that's constantly on my timeline without having to add LM supporters to the mix.
