I’m sorry but “rich, educated and deadly” being the headline they use to try to villainize Luigi is hilarious. He’s already gorgeous and purported to be super kind by those who knew him personally, now the media is just sprinkling sexy, anti-hero glitter all over him. I hope he is acquitted, but if he isn’t I think reading his fan mail will take up the majority of his sentence.

I love how an established newspaper doesn’t even put an Oxford comma in their headline

They also use inverse colon, having the quote first, then speaker after colon, which is very much against most style and grammar guides I have seen.
