If I’m not mistaken, I also recall a post where he talks about frustration and continuing issues with “brain fog” where he is unable to concentrate leading him to feel unproductive. I think he attributed the brain fog to his spinal injury.
I wonder if he could not take losing that job and feeling physically weak. A lot of people lose jobs- esp.early in life and many people develop physical problems, but he went from healthy and gainfully employed to unemployed and in bad shape and he was young. I am thinking of athletes who get injured and their career is destroyed. Maybe he felt like that even though from the outside, he still seems to us to have had a lot going for him, maybe it made him feel like a big loser.
It's just something was was so easy to fake, and it conveniently fit with a bunch of theories that had already been floating around online. This family is super wealthy, and his mom has no known health problems. It just doesn't pass the smell test.
I wonder if the feds are looking at some possible charges along these and/or other lines and will, at some point, add their charges to the mix. In other cases we have had here on WS, the feds have let the state charges go first and only moved forward with their federal charges if needed, i.e. if the state charges failed. No matter how, whether at the state or federal levels, they are going to get this guy and lock him away for most of the rest of his life, if not all of it. If he survives that long. He doesn't strike me as someone who will do well in the prison population.
Yes, posted his LinkedIn resume earlier. MSM has also posted some of the same.
The attorney won't say, when asked by the media. He does say that he is willing to stay on as LM's attorney for the case in New York, however, if asked. He says he has bonded already with LM.
Yeah, DM is citing that same dubious substack “manifesto.”Wow - really? The mom's health problems are made up? I'm partly surprised and partly...not surprised at all.
I wouldn't call them "super wealthy" at all (they aren't in the top 20 in Maryland). I think this is a family that wanted to act as if it was super wealthy, but Grandpa M. had 10 kids and 37 grandkids and only one of the ten seems to be even wealthy. The others are just upper middle class/well off. I think LM's own parents were and are struggling to appear rich.
I can't wait to see what happens with the breadcrumbs about his mom's illness. If she never had need for surgery or extensive healthcare, then, well, LM and family live in bizarro land.
I realize this is DM, but it's also on a lot of other sources (his mom's neuropathy - which can be super painful):
Is this the real reason Luigi Mangione gunned down healthcare CEO?
Hidden True Crime released a video Tuesday claiming it may have Luigi Mangione's manifesto -describing in detail his alleged 'act of war' against UnitedHealthcare.www.dailymail.co.uk
If they are neither super wealthy nor in super pain, I don't know what to say.

I'm married to a military police officer so I think my view on LE is biased, but it also means I also have first hand understanding of how some of these situations go. I do understand why they use these pressure points or other methods to gain control with as low risk as possible of injury to themselves or the person. If he was able to break free or pull an officer down, then what happens? What if he was able to flail around enough to injure a reporter or bystander? Police officers don't want to hurt anyone in the course of their day, but they often are put in situations where they have to make choices on short notice to protect themselves, innocent civilians, and the person they are dealing with. Putting pressure on a pressure point to gain compliance is much better than other options. Sometimes I think people just wish to find fault with everyone and everything other than the actual person they should be finding fault with. A man killed someone and people online are concerned about an officer putting pressure on his neck to get him to walk into the building. His own actions of screaming and twisting around to yell out to reporters is what caused their actions. If he didn't do that, they have no reason to put pressure on him to get him to quit and move on. What should they do? Allow him to stand there yelling at reporters and ranting on? Ridiculous.. and those that are loudest about these things usually have no idea exactly what LEO's do on a daily basis to keep them and their communities safer.
Hear hear @10ofRods ….. and it probably isn’t popular …… but seems IMO part of the solution is take the cameras and published venues away from the assailant / alleged murder suspect. Don’t give him an avenue or means to communicate. Don’t give him any unwarranted attention. Drive the vehicles containing LM into a secluded vehicle port or garage, out of camera and media view.
And why would this manifesto deviate so much from the actual manifesto? The two do not cover any of the same content.
Even more reason to NOT buy a pair of jeans that make it look like you peed yourself when you can apparently have the look for free. $800?!?!? (As an aside... which I had thought that up first.)I agree but apparently they can cost $800
These jeans that make you look like you wet yourself cost $800 – and sold out. Why?
The online mockery for Jordanluca's "crotch stain" denim hasn't seemed to hinder sales. Experts say there's a reason why designs like this resonate.www.usatoday.com
LOL!!!
I think he is more like Elizabeth Holmes or Sam Bankman-Fried- yes he is intelligent, but maybe also crazy in that his objectives, motives and actions are not legal and he believes that he is on a mission to save the world. Some legal definitions of mentally incompetent are very restrictive.
