Luigi Mangione Faces Extradition in UnitedHealthcare CEO Murder Case

The 26-year-old suspect hires a high-profile attorney as public donations for his legal defense exceed $130,000.

Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, has been charged with second-degree murder in New York and firearm offenses in Pennsylvania.
Mangione has retained Karen Friedman Agnifilo, a former Manhattan prosecutor and experienced criminal defense attorney, to represent him in the case.
Public supporters have raised over $130,000 through crowdfunding to assist with Mangione’s legal expenses, with donations continuing to rise.
A reported manifesto found during Mangione's arrest criticizes healthcare companies for prioritizing profits over patient care, reflecting broader frustrations with the industry.
The McDonald’s employee who tipped off police, leading to Mangione’s arrest after a six-day manhunt, may be eligible for a $60,000 reward but could face delays in receiving it.
