Luigi Mangione has been considered the prime suspect in the fatal shooting of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, last week. Authorities arrested him on Monday, December 9, and also claimed that he carried a fake ID and a firearm that looked similar to the one used to shoot Thompson.
Since his arrest, several personal information about Luigi has surfaced online. This included his prominent family background and career as well. A new piece of information was shared through a tweet by an X user (@LuigiCrave) on December 10.
According to the tweet, the suspected shooter was apparently present at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour concert in Miami on the third day of October 20, 2024. The tweet also shared a photo of Luigi Mangione with a caption that read:
"New photo uncovered of Luigi Mangione at Miami N3 of the Era’s Tour! #ErasTour #Luigimangione."
The tweet went viral shortly and garnered more than 4.5 million views and over 48.5k likes, within a day since it was uploaded. Several netizens reacted to the suspect possibly being a Swiftie. A user (@emkenobi) wrote on X:
Another user tweeted:
"I think we need a statement from Taylor Swift to clear the air."
"No body no crime. He should have listened harder," commented a netizen possibly referring to the 2021 track of Taylor.
"The swifties might actually be the only ones who can help him," added a tweet.
While users commented about him possibly being a Taylor Swift fan, others joked about the presence of a "stan" account of the suspect. A user wrote:
"A Stan account omg y’all were all going to hell.😆."
"A whole update account is crazy😭😭," explained another one.
"LUIGI CRAVE IS WILD," read a tweet.
Luigi Mangione reportedly possessed a manifesto against "corporate America"
Luigi Mangione, who now faces a murder charge in connection to the shooting of Brian Thompson reportedly had a detailed manifesto that apparently gave some perception about the alleged attack.
An internal police report was obtained by CNN and the New York Times, which confirmed the presence of the manifesto when cops detained the suspected shooter. According to the law enforcement officials:
"[Luigi] appeared to view the targeted killing of the company’s highest-ranking representative as a symbolic takedown and a direct challenge to its alleged corruption and 'power games'..."
As reported by The Times, cops have also expressed concern that many individuals might end up seeing Luigi's actions to be motivating and act similarly. It has further been reported that he acted alone and funded himself.
Luigi belonged to a prominent family in Maryland and had a lucrative career ahead. He graduated as a valedictorian from the renowned Gilman School. Glimpses into his yearbook have been obtained after two girls shared the same in a TikTok video. In his profile, Luigi Mangione expressed gratitude towards his parents as well as the faculty of the school.
Meanwhile, the suspect's family released a joint statement through his cousin, who is a Maryland state delegate, in which they expressed shock upon learning about Luigi's arrest. No additional details about the suspect have been released yet.
