Summary
Luigi Mangione, accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in Manhattan, is fighting extradition from Pennsylvania to New York.
Arrested Monday with evidence linking him to the crime, Mangione faces multiple charges, including second-degree murder and gun violations.
At his hearing, he shouted accusations of injustice and was denied bail.
His lawyer plans to challenge the detention and has stated Mangione will plead not guilty.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul intends to issue a warrant for extradition, while Pennsylvania prosecutors prioritize transferring Mangione for trial in New York.
This is the corporation that administers the PA DOCs inmate commissary (don’t get me started on everything that is philosophically wrong with that sentence; I have a manifesto of my own to write). Mr. Mangione’s inmate ID# is QQ7787. The system requests an email address and will likely collect credit card information. I’ll try to see later this week if it will accept a burner email and a visa gift card purchased with cash, but my hopes are not high. I will tell you as someone vaguely familiar with the correctional system that in many places conditions are basically unlivable without commissary (again, don’t get me started). I also don’t know how much they will punitively restrict his access regardless of funds due to the political nature of his alleged crime. If they don’t allow privacy for those providing funds I will have to weigh how much I value my own privacy in this current political climate against my continued soft spot for those exposed to the correctional system.
The Privacy app might help in this regard. It allows you to set up temporary credit cards to avoid reoccurring charges and the like.
This deserves it’s own post!
I wouldn’t know which comm to put it in, when I wrote it I just looked for the most recent post about him in c/all.
Someone able to make this with Luigi’s face?
Did it days ago with picture from CCTV footage. Though, it’s obviously not him:

Not guilty by way of self defense?
Delay the court proceedings
Deny the accusations
Defend against the accusations in a court of law
But what about the “depose” part?
Man, he did his part, its time for someone else to step up. He cant fight the class war all by himself.
If recent history is anything to go by this guy could be president one day
I could see a lot of people drawn to the idea of that.
Compulsory election, anyone?
Y’all had your chance somehow the majority of Americans voted for the rapist
*The majority of voters. The majority of Americans didn’t vote at all.
Distinction accepted
Was it even the majority of voters?

Anyway, it still went horribly wrong.The plurality of voters.
I, for one, don’t think he did it.
The initial pictures of the suspect from CCTV cameras doesn’t match a single picture of Luigi taken after being arrested. Different nose. Different brow line. Different eyebrows. Different eyes… So no, I don’t think he did it either. Dude’s being set up as a patsy.
It does seem like they just found a bunch of pics of random guys with a hood and jacket along with some with a mask added to make them all seem linked.
Why does he talk about injustice for the country rather than… Y’know, saying they got the wrong guy? The killer was hot, rich, and hated the Healthcare system. They just happened to dig up another hot rich dude that hated ceos and framed him?

Seems highly plausible. It also wouldn’t be hard for them to do.
One that’s willing to take the fall for something he didn’t do? This is failing occams razor hard.
Who said he’s willing to take the fall? He pled not guilty.
Railing about the people is not the same as “I am literally not that guy.”
Seriously.
All we have are a few grainy-ass photos and a giant fucking “trust me bro” from the cops.
Don’t you remember, we were hanging out with him that whole day in Altoona, getting a slice of Za.
He was with me. We were making sweet sweet love on piles of money and writing a manifesto in a hotel room. I just went out for ice!!
Good on him. If you’re guilty, waste their fucking time. Make it unprofitable to deal with you. Become ungovernable.
