In case anyone needs it spelled out for them, the difference between the way Luigi Mangioni's crime was handled by the system versus the crime committed by the so-called "Cornell 7" is that Luigi's victim was a billionaire CEO whereas the victim in the Cornell case whose life was destroyed was merely a woman.

Even the way we talk about the perpetrators illuminates the bias our society holds against women. We all know Luigi's name and face. He had a perp walk. He was paraded in handcuffs in front of the press and cameras. His name made front page headlines for weeks.

Whereas the men who committed an act of - let's call it what it is - mass gang rape of a child, are conveniently anonymized behind a pseudonym that identifies them only by the school they attended and the number of rapists in their gang.
