UnitedHealthcare CEO's Murder: Suspect Luigi Mangione Faces Extradition and Mounting Evidence

Luigi Mangione, accused of killing CEO Brian Thompson, hires a top New York attorney as his motives and background come under scrutiny.

Luigi Mangione, 26, is charged with the December 4 targeted shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel.
Police uncovered a manifesto and writings suggesting Mangione's animosity toward corporate greed and the health insurance industry, with evidence linking him to the crime scene.
Mangione is currently being held in Pennsylvania, facing local charges, while fighting extradition to New York, though officials suggest he might waive this fight soon.
A high-profile attorney, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, has been retained for Mangione's defense, as supporters raise over $90,000 for his legal fund online.
The case has sparked broader discussions about public frustrations with the U.S. healthcare system, with polls showing some sympathy for Mangione's grievances.
