Luigi Mangione Pleads Not Guilty in UnitedHealthcare CEO Murder, Held in MDC Brooklyn

Dec 28, 2024, 02:20 PM

Luigi Mangione, accused of the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, has pleaded not guilty to state charges. The 26-year-old is currently detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, New York, where he is being held in administrative segregation due to his high-profile status. Mangione's case has garnered significant attention, with supporters vandalizing Jeffrey Epstein's former Upper East Side mansion with messages linked to Mangione, including the phrase 'Deny, defend, depose' which was allegedly inscribed on the bullets used in the murder. Additionally, a fundraising effort by Mangione's supporters has raised $189,000 for his defense. Mangione faces both state and federal charges, with his next court appearance scheduled for February 21.
