Mangione, who was born and raised in Maryland, is an anti-capitalist former Ivy League student.
It has been revealed online that he has liked quotes from “Unabomber’’ Ted Kaczynski raging against the country’s medical community.
According to a source, the former prep school valedictorian was captured with a manifesto on him that listed his grievances against the health care industry, including its taking of enormous profits and its alleged shady motives.
The person who called the police to report Mangione was an ‘elderly patron’ who was eating at the McDonalds that he was captured at.
9:32 AM – Pennsylvania police have detained a man that they believe to be a “person of interest” in the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
On Monday, the man was taken into custody by police in Altoona, Pennsylvania. He was nabbed due to a tip that was called into local officials. Police located the man sitting at a McDonalds.
The individual that is now in custody had a manifesto on him, a gun, a suppressor, four fake IDs and other items that were “consistent” with what authorities would expect the killer to have in his possession.
A New York police source noted that the man looks like the suspect, highlighting the man’s similar eyebrows.
Thompson, the UnitedHealthcare CEO, was fatally shot outside of his Manhattan Hotel on Wednesday, December 4th. Police say that it was a targeted attack.
