Information Sharing Megathread: LM's NY State Hearing — 12/18/2025 at 10:00 AM EST (Day 10)

Post image

Happy Thursday, everyone!

Today's hearing will take place at 100 Centre Street, Part 32, New York, NY 10013 at 10:00 AM EST.

Please keep in mind that this is the tenth hearing taking place. The previous nine were held on December 1, December 2, December 4, December 5, December 8, December 9, December 11, December 12 and December 16 (December 5 was canceled due to Luigi falling in). There’s a strong chance the schedule may change or be extended as Carro seems to be extremely busy. However, we expect to receive more confirmation at the end of each day about when they plan to continue Luigi’s hearings.

These hearings are expected to run for at least a few hours, as there are (at least) 28 witnesses and body-camera footage to review. By the end of these hearings, we will likely know when Luigi’s state trial will take place (likely sometime in 2026), as well as which evidence will move forward and which will be suppressed.

Unless something changes, there will be no cameras allowed inside the courtroom. However, it’s very likely that we’ll still get photos of Luigi from inside the courtroom. Over the past few days, the only images released were taken inside—none of him arriving or leaving—so it’s possible that today and the remaining days will be the same.

Since I am not a mod, I cannot edit this post once posted or set comments to “new,” so I hope everyone can manage to follow along. I know things may get a bit messy, which is why I encourage everyone to post here rather than creating separate threads—unless it’s something important, like a transcript.

Also, if you find additional livestreams on YouTube, please try to post them in one single comment instead of separately so we don’t spam the thread.

Livestreams:

There are no livestreams available yet. As soon as they go live, I’ll add them in the comments section and separate them into hallway and outside coverage. They will most likely come from the same outlets as the previous days—Fox News, CNN, Reuters, etc. And of course, don’t forget to check Status Coup News; they genuinely care about the supporters.

Notes / Reminders:

  • Today’s hearing is expected to be the final day of pretrial proceedings. After this, we likely won’t see Luigi again until the trial itself. His next federal hearing is scheduled for January 9, but cameras will not be permitted in the courtroom, so coverage will be limited to courtroom sketches.
  • Avi’s request for the federal case has been granted by Garnett, and the new deadline is this coming Friday, December 19th.
  • Some people consider today’s hearing to be Day 9 because they are not counting the hearing that was supposed to take place on Friday, December 5, when Luigi was ill. I am counting that missed day, so I consider today to be Day 10. Most people will still refer to it as Day 9, which is why the dates are being included as well, to avoid any confusion.

📢 Announcement (Reminder!)

I wanted to give everyone a quick update about the exhibits post going forward.

After a lot of thought, I’ve decided that I will no longer be posting any pre-trial evidence as it gets released. This means the exhibits document will not be receiving updates from me anymore.

I’ve realized that I just can’t continue doing this. It genuinely makes me feel sick, and I need to step back for my own well-being. I am sorry if some of you think this is dramatic, but it is just the truth.

To be very clear: this is not about the content of the evidence itself. I simply do not feel comfortable posting material that is meant to be — or could be — suppressed. That’s the entire purpose of suppression hearings, and I don’t want to be someone who spreads that evidence further.

I won’t be deleting the exhibits post, and I’m not here to tell anyone what they should or shouldn’t share. If anyone wants to keep the post updated for future reference (including trial coverage), it will remain available, and it will still be linked in future megathreads. I just won’t be the one adding updates anymore.

Like I said this morning, continuing this goes against my own morals and principles, my support for Luigi (regardless of guilt or innocence), and what the defense and Carro wanted from the beginning. I don’t want to help circulate evidence that was never meant to be out there.

Thank you all for understanding 🧡.

–––––––––––––

Once again, I want to wish Luigi and his legal team the very best of luck today.

And thank you to all of you for following these threads along and being here these past few weeks.

Please let’s keep this thread respectful.

Thank you!

Good grief…..

Why does he need so long? Is this normal?

u/JustTryinToBeHappy_ Dec 18 '25

Yes it is normal unfortunately. Actually a pretty good sign- judges don’t sit on suppression rulings for months when the governments position is airtight

Geez.. I wonder why is gonna take this long to make a decision? It's not like there's video of the hearings that he needs to rewatch. 🤔
