Luigi Mangione ‘had all that one wants but...’: New York mayor raises concern of radicalisation
Live MintNew York mayor Eric Adams stressed that despite having everything one could want, Luigi Mangione harboured enough hatred to commit a murder. Mangione has been formally indicted in New York on first-degree murder charges for the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson murder case Luigi Mangione, 26, fled Manhattan after the 4 December shooting, authorities said, touching off a five-day manhunt that ended with his arrest in western Pennsylvania. A survey of Mangione’s online presence shows that the suspect—who attended the University of Pennsylvania—praised the manifesto of another Ivy League graduate known for violent acts aimed at corporate targets, the Unabomber, on the book-review website Goodreads, calling his insights “prescient.” Mangione appears to have had a privileged upbringing in Maryland, the product of a wealthy family with various business interests.
