Overview

• The GiveSendGo campaign for Luigi Mangione, accused of assassinating UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, has raised over $1.04 million from more than 28,000 donors, with a median contribution of $20.
• Organizers have increased the fundraising goal to $1.5 million to cover legal expenses across three pending criminal cases in New York and Pennsylvania.
• Mangione, who turned 27 on May 6, 2025, has pleaded not guilty to federal charges, including murder through use of a firearm, which could result in the death penalty if convicted.
• Supporters frame the campaign as a protest against the U.S. healthcare system, citing grievances over its for-profit structure and the perceived weaponization of the legal system.
• Mangione’s next federal court hearing is scheduled for December 5, 2025, where a trial date will be set.
