The man detained by police in Pennsylvania in connection with the shock slaying of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson has been identified as Luigi Mangione.
Mangione, 26, is an 'anti-capitalist' Ivy League graduate. He was taken into custody after a McDonald's employee in Altoona, around 100 miles east of Pittsburgh, believed they recognized him as the gunman.
He reportedly had a 3D-printed ghost gun similar to the one used in the Wednesday morning murder, along with a gun silencer, a manifesto, and four fake IDs when he was arrested by cops.
Mangione has been arrested on firearms charges. As of Monday afternoon, he has not been charged with Thompson's murder.

Really?
The thing is - he committed a murder. It might be a murder of a heinous individual, but it was a murder nonetheless.
If the DNA etc. match, then he would be guilty and convicted. I think a bad man (the CEO) was murdered - but he was “murdered” nonetheless.
So those McDonalds fry cooks are pretty sharp eh?
All the technology, all the manpower and yet the fbi is foiled by a minimum wage fast food restaurant employee.
It’s almost as if they WANTED him to get away......but that couldn’t be.......could it? 🤔
Re: 3 - I hope you downloaded or took a screen shot, as it’s off limits now.
Damn. Had to be a doggone Italian.
They better make good on the reward. Don’t give the 50 grand to Hunter no matter how much he claims to have made the call.
Well, they do have to connect things up and prove he did it. What if the 3-d printed ‘ghost gun’ he has doesn’t match ballistics? What if the 4 fake ids don’t include a NJ drivers license used at the hostel? He had a ‘manifesto’. Now, while it sounds like they luckily caught the perp, maybe they didn’t. It is the LSM, after all, telling us all this.
[after a McDonald’s employee in Altoona, around 100 miles east of Pittsburgh, believed they recognized him as the gunman.]
The employee became suspicious when the customer said “Eighteen dollars for a Big Mac combo meal?? I just might kill the CEO of McDonald’s like I did with that insurance company guy!”
REPORT: Luigi Mangione, who was named a person of interest in the execution of CEO Brian Thompson, was valedictorian of the Gilman School in 2016.
I have found footage of his valedictorian speech at the 119th Gilman School Founder’s Day Ceremony.
Mangione is one of six children and said he intended to study AI at the University of Pennsylvania when he graduated.
The Gilman School is a $40,000-a-year all-boys school in Baltimore.
Mangione had shared a quote online from “Unabomber” Ted Kaczynski before he was caught.
“Imagine a society that subjects people to conditions that make them terribly unhappy then gives them the drugs to take away their unhappiness,” a Kaczynski quote liked by Mangione read.

DNA swab taken, and I suspect the gun will be id'd as the one used. That's more than enough.
Great work by the McDonalds employee!
Ordinary people can do great things .
Wow how convenient. In too many aspects?
lol
The FIBS planned on milking this craziness thru next summer. I bet they are really upset with two McDonalds workers.......
I have to suspect that ultimately it doesnt really matter as this wont have anything to do with a murder as far as what will come out of it.
The communists are going to use it to attempt to restrict printers, use it to further attack the 2nd, and push for more ridiculous means of ID than what we presently have.
If they get their way no one will remember this kid or the CEO a few years down the road except for some law student.
Just because Trump is coming doesnt mean we have won.
