Police say they have a growing list of evidence connecting Luigi Mangione to the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. But his attorney says he hasn't seen any evidence and questions the credibility of some of it.

U what is wild, i called the police for a burglary and they told me this isn’t a tv show, dna/labs/fingerprint evidence takes time to analyze. I guess if you are a wealthy CEO, you get TOP PRIORITY…

They are going to have a blast trying to find a jury that doesn't have family who were wronged by their insurance company one time or another.

Remember these words when you get called for jury duty: "I haven't formed an opinion about this case."

We are all born. We all die.
It seems to me that death is a pre-existing condition.
My empathy is out of network, and my sympathy has been denied.

Of course a politician finds it “troubling”

[Peewee]

Profiting billions by having a high claim denial rate doesn't go well with the public. They have the highest denial rate at 32% of all claims and then show a rise in profit every quarter. Greed is bad, but to make extra profit off the denial of medical services is just evil.

If Luigi is to be charged for one ☠, united Healthcare should be charged for all the ☠s they are responsible for.

FRAME JOB! Guilty in the news already. How is he supposed to be able to get a fair trial? They made this man guilty before his trial. What happened to innocent until proven guilty!?

[letorobull]

They don't look like the same person. Also, how many other water bottles with other finger prints did they find? And why does finger prints in a water bottle mean hes guilty?

[Faith-mw]

Better question is, how our media, politicians, corporations, lawmakers all have left middle America behind. One man's death is more important than millions suffering to get and pay for medical care. It's not about left or right political views, this is one issue that we all suffer from. Healthcare is taking our humanity and killing us for profit.

'I find it troubling that there have been public figures who either have been silent or dangerously close to rationalizing'...the extortion racket known as the US healthcare system.

[sandyr]

So far the only thing Luigi is "guilty" of is slightly resembling two poor quality pictures of the alleged killer. Now that authorities have a suspect they are conveniently finding circumstantial "evidence". How trustworthy is the "evidence" that has been mishandled so far?

[dekonfrost]

Mangioni is innocent until proven guilty

I am flying to England for medical treatment. Even including plane ticket, it is cheaper than going to the doctor in the USA.

[VinhLe-eeem]

Now it's time for GOV and Insurance companies look at them self what did they do for Americans.

[laurenmclain]

Yes, the real criminals in the U.S. find it troubling that there's public support of him. They should be asking themselves why, and finally doing something about it, for once.

[pizzaman]

Severe lack of reporting on the amount of denied claims united Healthcare has racked up. 🤔

[weaziedaEZ]

I don't think it was Luigi they planted evidence that first picture was not him, different jacket different face, McDonald's found it? McDonald's can't even get an order right you think they got the guy with that picture?

[jamesbernald]

So the lawyer is doing his job and that’s supposed to be bad?

[AM-bkei]

I haven't heard any evidence that would lead me to convict him.
