    Its not about justice, its about making a show of someone being punished.

    We’re living in Fahrenheit 451; if you cant catch the real murderer, just pick someone vaguely the same proportions that’s already on a list and punish them instead; the public doesn’t care or need to know, as long as they get their entertainment.

    If Luigi had been alone and/or not in a public space when they found him, he would have had a bullet in the head from the cops; case closed.

      The real killer was probably doing a hit.

      But since they made such a big deal out of it, we will know a lot about the level of surveillance they actually have…. Which is apparently not much.
