This reminds me of a neat history lesson:

https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/emma-goldman-the-tragedy-at-buffalo

History doesnt repeat, but it certainly rhymes.

"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable."

It wasnt Czolgosz or Mangione that sat at the reigns of a murder machine sanctioned by baron-owned-state monopoly of violence.

Goldman, for her part, had such a big heart for those driven to desperate acts.

Throughout her detention and after her release, Goldman steadfastly refused to condemn Czolgosz's actions, standing virtually alone in doing so. Friends and supporters—including Berkman—urged her to quit his cause. But Goldman defended Czolgosz as a "supersensitive being" and chastised other anarchists for abandoning him.[75] She was vilified in the press as the "high priestess of anarchy",[76] while many newspapers declared the anarchist movement responsible for the murder.[77] In the wake of these events, socialism gained support over anarchism among US radicals. McKinley's successor, Theodore Roosevelt, declared his intent to crack down "not only against anarchists, but against all active and passive sympathizers with anarchists".[78]

Berkman wasnt shit. Emma was a real one

How should he be defended?

Seems to me a matter of arguing that, a person put in a circumstance in which they endure immense and sustained, sometimes chronic pain, or loss; who is full aware that they are gatekept from a medicine, procedure or healthcare service which drastically ameliorates or outright prevents that suffering, in seeing the unneccesary cruelty for sake of some rich monster getting another yacht, and under immense anguisu, or grief may suffer a form of fugue state in which they cannot be considered to have acted of their own sound mind, but instead induced by the actor who by the pen created their suffering.
