Suspect in UnitedHealthcare CEO killing said he 'had it coming,' according to prosecutors
Briefly

Luigi Mangione is charged with the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, having expressed a desire to kill him in a diary found by prosecutors. They referenced his writings, including a confession, to illustrate his premeditated intent against health insurance executives. Mangione's lawyers argue that the parallel state and federal charges amount to double jeopardy and hinder his defense strategy, while prosecutors insist the charges have different legal bases. With no trial dates set, the legal battle over Mangione's case is ongoing.
Mangione's intentions were obvious from his acts, but his writings serve to make those intentions explicit.
“Conveys a greedy bastard that had it coming,” Mangione mused, indicating a premeditated motive against health insurance executives.
