The fan mail for the murder suspect doesn’t appeared to have slowed in the two months since his arrest

Summary

Luigi Mangione, accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, has asked his supporters to limit the number of photos they send him to 5 at a time due to overwhelming volume and screening delays.

Charged with murder, he has pleaded not guilty. Mangione’s case sparked debate about healthcare, with supporters sending fan mail and donations.

His legal defense fund has raised over $615,000. He expressed gratitude for the letters, acknowledging support across “political, racial, and even class divisions.”

Mangione also faces federal and Pennsylvania charges. His attorney argues he’s being treated differently, held in federal custody.

    Meanwhile the Mayor of NYC gets to prance through the rules. They also have done a shitty shitty job with handling this case. They didn’t read him his rights. They released key information on tv before providing it to the defense! The whole army of people to transport him! The complete lack of any scrutiny on the healthcare industry further about what led to this in the first place! god knows these insurance companies will continue to exploit unabated. Especially during this “administration”.
