Luigi Mangione, the suspect in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, has reportedly confessed to the shooting in a handwritten manifesto. In the note, Mangione criticizes the American healthcare system and corporate greed, specifically targeting UnitedHealthcare for prioritizing profits over improving American life expectancy. NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny revealed that Mangione expressed frustration with the high cost of healthcare in the U.S. and the low life expectancy rank of Americans. Mangione, 26, was captured after a manhunt and charged with Thompson’s murder. The motive behind the crime is still being investigated, as it is unclear if Mangione or his family had any prior issues with UnitedHealthcare. The shocking video of the shooting shows Mangione approaching Thompson from behind and opening fire before escaping the scene. The killer was able to flee New York City within 45 minutes and was finally apprehended at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania. The incident has sparked a conversation about the state of healthcare and corporate influence in America. Police are still investigating the case to determine the full extent of Mangione’s motives and connections.
