None of that confirms the lies you are putting out here.

So what if he came from a well known Italian family in an Italian area, he himself is clearly not rich.

Even if he was rich, he did what we’re all thinking most of the time about the ultra wealthy and apparently because he was thinking it too.

He’s still managed to live a very rich and privileged life. Access to money doesn’t seem to have ever been a problem for him. He could afford to live comfortably in Honolulu and take weeks at a time for personal trips across Asia. Whether the money was his or his family’s doesn’t really change much.

Don’t mind me, just trying to summarize the timeline of your argument.

1 He is a multi-millionaire (100K being 1% = 10mil)

2 He is part of a millionaire family

3 He is eligible to inherit huge amounts of money in the future; includes a honest side-note on how he may not get some big sum precisely because of what he did. Which i do appreciate but its weird to keep pursuing the argument.

4 We are now at he lives comfortably, much more then most. Which says nothing about the means for legal defense in a case like this where the state is part of the problem and people sometimes directly funded by millionaires to make certain choices.

Prediction for the next argument will be he eats avocado toast every day without even needing to pull on his bootstraps.

I’m not sure how you’ve misunderstood, I think my argument was pretty clear: The wealthy don’t need handouts.
