Deny Defend Depose

EAT THE CEOs"

he is so “white boy swag” here my favorite thing will always be him serving face?!

Meanwhile the US is run by an administration literally built on political violence where a sitting president can state that ”a whole civilization will die tonight” without repercussions

After 16 grueling days, we’ve finally crowned our winner!

But first, the runner ups…

To celebrate that Hand Olympics is coming to and end TONIGHT, I present to you…

Hand Olympics Honorable Mentions

These are 10 pics I very seriously considered, but could not include in the original polls. They may have been low quality, awkward to crop, too similar to another picture, or just fell victim to the fact that I could only pick 16. I thought they should still have some recognition before the time is up.

Truly thank you guys so much for being so kind and interactive with the Hand Olympics! It’s been so much fun to do. I’ve loved getting to see everyone’s reactions and watching the results. Another really big shoutout to lumpie @luigis-nostrils for bringing the olympics to luigiblr and being a supporter of hand olympics. Love uu <3 Everybody get excited for eyebrow olympics!!

STATE CASE:

May 18, 2026: a decision will be made on whether any evidence will be suppressed from the pre-trial hearings that were held in December 2025.

September 8, 2026: start of the state trial (estimated length: six weeks. It was previously scheduled on June 5)

FEDERAL CASE:

April 24, 2026: The defense will submit a new letter to the court to what was discussed privately at the April 1 hearing.

June 15, 2026 (9 AM): Conference to discuss the final questionnaire, and the jury selection process.

October 13, 2026: Jury selection (voir dire) begins

November 4, 2026: Federal trial begins.

If the state trial runs longer than needed judge Garnett proposed these dates as a back-up:

January 5, 2027: Jury selection (voir dire)

January 25 – February 12, 2027: Federal Trial

Luigi was uncuffed, wearing his prison jumpsuit. The hearing was scheduled in order to decide if Luigi's federal trail should be delayed until January, 2027 - as per defense's request.

The judge spoke to the defense ex-parte. A letter regarding all this was also filed on 23 March. For now, this letter and the ex-parte communication will be sealed (not available to the public) because they discuss defense's strategies.

Prosecution argued that 2 of Luigi's defense attorneys (Marc Agnifilo and Jacob Kaplan) and should not have taken on new clients (like Harvey Weinstein, whose trial starts on Apr 14) and then use schedule conflicts as an excuse to delay this federal case. Luigi's attorney Karen Friedman Agnifilo (who doesn't represent Weinstein) countered that they work on a lot of cases and that Weinstein's case has nothing to do with this one. Especially since Weinstein's trial is scheduled to start in less than 2 weeks.

The judge was reluctant to delay the federal trial until Jan 2027, because the state trial has not yet been adjourned until Sept, as defense expects it to be. We talked more about this previously here:

Judge Garnett said she'll slightly adjust the jury selection schedule and delay the start of opening statements until Oct 26 or Nov 2. Currently, this was supposed to happen on Oct 14. So, there will only be a 12 or 26-day delay in the federal case.

WHAT'S NEXT:

Federal judge set another hearing for Jun 5 to discuss jury questionnaires

Voir Dire in federal case will start on Oct 5 (as opposed to Sept 8)

Defense will likely ask the state judge to delay the state trial

If state trial is delayed, federal trial will be delayed even more
