Police found a manifest on the person of interest nabbed at a McDonald’s in connection with the shooting death of UnitedHealthCare CEO Brian Thompson.
Ex-Ivy League student Luigi Mangione, 26, was taken into custody in Altoona, Pennsylvania after customers in a McDonald’s recognized him and tipped off local law enforcement.
Law enforcement found at least four fake IDs on Mangione, a gun with a silencer and a manifesto.
According to The New York Post, Luigi Mangione’s manifesto ranted against the healthcare industry.
Mangione was anti-Capitalist, ranted about the healthcare industry’s massive profits and believes in climate change.
Luigi Mangione has not been charged yet.
The New York Post reported:
The former prep school valedictorian was caught with a manifesto that appeared to list grievances against the health care industry, including its taking of enormous profits and its alleged shady motives, sources said.
Mangione has subscribed to anti-capitalist and climate-change causes in addition to showing he despises the health care industry in the country, according to law enforcement sources, citing online activity gleaned by authorities.
On the Goodreads website, Mangione’s account shows quotes he particularly likes ranging from Socrates to Bruce Lee — to wacky anti-establishment Kaczynski, the infamous “Unabomber’’ who terrorized the country for nearly two decades by dispatching deadly bombs before he was nabbed in 1996.
