Excerpt:

Prosecutors highlighted “about $10,000 — $8,000 in U.S. dollars and then $2,000 in foreign currency that was found on his person,” CNN correspondent Danny Freeman said following the court hearing.

“Also they said that he had a Faraday bag,” which blocks cell signals, a move that prosecutors alleged marked “an indication of criminal sophistication and reason they should hold him on bail,” Freeman continued.

After prosecutors made the claims, Mangione said he would like to “correct two things.”

“I don’t know where any of that money came from — I’m not sure if it was planted. And also, that bag was waterproof, so I don’t know about criminal sophistication,” the suspect said in a statement that suggested police framed him.

You know he had a fake New Jersey ID because he used that to check in at the hostel.

Motive, If it exists, should come out pretty clearly in discovery. If that actually was his journal he was carrying with him that he wrote in , the points in there will be easy to prove or disprove. From the sound of the journal he was planning on turning himself in or getting caught.

I'll fully admit what we saw in the video and the actions right after seem to be very coherent compared to what were hearing now. But the discrepancies aren't so big they can't be explained if he was just kind of winging it.

The differences in the coat in the backpack could be the differences between a daytime camera and a camera in night mode. In a night shot things reflect ir light differently, that one shot definitely looks like it doesn't have pockets in the front. But we are looking at potato cam footage.

They'll also have proper records of him coming in with that fake ID.

I guess I'm just saying the difference is between them planting evidence and* him coming in with the intent to pull it off and likely get caught should be stark enough to come out in Discovery if he even has a half decent lawyer. Also what the f*** was up with that Joe pesci arringement I attorney
