Luigi Mangione is expected to plead guilty as early as Friday in the federal case accusing him of stalking and killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, a stunning development in a case that rattled business leaders while galvanizing their critics, according to a person familiar with the matter.
Memes aside, you guys know he actually did this right?
You know the, “he didn’t do it” thing is a meme. As in, “oh no, he was totally with me that day. We were feeding homeless people at my local church”
It’s a meme because we support what he did
But in reality, he’s guilty as fuck. He totally did it
I don’t know shit.
And, O.J. taught us all that he can still get off, even if he did, because the law doesn’t define justice, people do.
What? Luigi literally just said he did it.
He told a judge that he followed Thompson to a UnitedHealth Group investor conference and shot him on the morning of Dec 4 2024. He also explained that leading up to the murder he emailed UnitedHealthcare while pretending to be an investor at a firm managing more than $50 million in assets so he could get information about the conference. He also acknowledged building a 3D-printed gun with a silencer and that this was the weapon he used for the shooting.
And I quote
“On the morning of Dec 4 2024 I shot Mr. Thompson in Manhattan and he died”
This isn’t new information to anyone who actually knows about the case… we all know he did it, we’re all just pretending like he’s innocent because we support him
yet these comments read like people don’t understand that we’re joking when we say he’s innocent.
That’s concerning that you guys are so thick you literally don’t recognize jokes when you see them anymore.
There’s nothing to argue about it. He did it. He admitted it. He’s pleading guilty.
Anyone in the comments who literally thinks he’s innocent is a fucking moron
The words of a man threatened with death. Plenty of innocent people take a plea deal under similar threats every day.
“Read this, or get the death penalty, and we’ll make sure you die before Trump leave office.”
“What do you want me to say?”
Better to sit in prison a few years, and then try to get the next administration to kick the conviction for any number of DoJ improprieties.

He did it. He never even attempted to deny he did it. He literally sent emails to track where the CEO would be. There are zero other suspects.
He did it. We all know he did it. We just pretended like he was an innocent man being framed because we support what he did; you weren’t suppose to take us seriously
he’s innocent until proven guilty
Sure, but also, he killed that man
These comments lead me to believe that a large portion of this site literally thinks that he’s literally an innocent man being framed by the government instead of everyone just pretending like he’s innocent because we support his actions

Maybe if you read that you’d have some kind of understanding of the situation.
I support Luigi
But also, Luigi did it
I know that. I’ve always known that. He’s never really denied it. He just admitted it himself
We all joke around that he’s innocent and that he was with us at church or whatever… that the real shooter is a woman or whatever… but these are jokes. we don’t actually think he’s innocent, we’re just pretending like he’s innocent to show support
There seems to be a crazy amount of people who don’t understand that though and might actually think that Luigi literally was with me at church that day and that I did actually see a 9 foot Amazonian woman pull the trigger.
There seems to be a crazy amount of people who think Luigi is being framed because they apparently believed the comments they read on the internet not understanding that we’re all joking out of support
It’s not that I don’t get that people are joking. It’s that supporting a murderer is really fucking weird.
Is it not murder to knowingly turn down life saving medical procedures people paid for because doing so makes you rich?
CEOs should be fucking scared people will murder them in the street… then maybe they’ll make good decisions again
