As he appeared for his extradition hearing, Luigi Mangione, 26, a former Ivy League student who is accused of shooting and murdering Brian Thompson.
The CEO of UnitedHealthcare, spoke resolutely against what he called “an insult to the intelligence of the American people.”
Earlier today (December 10), the accused killer was seen on camera riding in a police car as he arrived at a courtroom in Pennsylvania.
Before being forced inside by authorities, Mangione used the chance to yell at the cameras as he was led to the scene.
As stated in a manifesto he had with him at the time of his detention, Mangione’s bluster is consistent with his ideological position.
He denounced the enormous revenues and what he saw to be immoral practices of the American healthcare system in it.
