There is no evidence this is an official donation fund

      The article is from yesterday, and slightly updated.

      It looks like it’s now up to $83k

      For how hard fundraising for Luigi has been suppressed, I’m shocked it even got this far at all.

        I feel like it could be at $100M overnight with the right advertising…

          The trial hasn’t even been scheduled as far as I’m aware. By the time it rolls around that fund is going to be much bigger.

            PA said they will hold off on prosecuting their charges until after the NY charges are completed. I would be surprised to see a trial within the next year.

              Yeah, they’re gonna try to wait as long as they possibly can for the trial so people forget about it and lose the sense of solidarity that’s been developed around him.

      I never heard of that place before and I hope a lot of people were not too knee-jerk about it. It wasn’t like, “official” in any sense that I could see.
