Fingerprints Link Luigi Mangione to UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson's Murder; Denied Bail, Challenges Extradition
Dec 11, 2024, 02:13 PM
Luigi Mangione, a 26-year-old man from a prominent Maryland family, has been arrested and charged in the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside the Hilton Midtown Hotel in Manhattan, New York, on December 4. Mangione was apprehended on Monday at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania, about 230 miles west of New York City, after a five-day manhunt. His fingerprints match those found at the crime scene. Upon being led into the Pennsylvania courthouse on Tuesday, Mangione shouted at reporters, 'This is an insult!' He appeared in court that day, where he was denied bail and is challenging his extradition to New York. His attorney, Thomas Dickey, stated, 'We've seen no evidence,' and indicated that Mangione intends to plead not guilty. Authorities discovered a notebook detailing plans for the killing, and a manifesto allegedly posted online in which Mangione considered using a bomb but decided against it to avoid harming innocent people. The manifesto reportedly references filmmaker Michael Moore and New York Times reporter Elisabeth Rosenthal. Mangione's mother had filed a missing person's report for him in San Francisco in November, stating they hadn't heard from him in months. An Ivy League graduate and former valedictorian of his elite Baltimore prep school, Mangione's transformation from a privileged upbringing to a murder suspect has shocked those who knew him.
