DA says 40 UnitedHealthcare execs got bodyguards, and one dyed her hair after Luigi Mangione killed CEO Brian Thompson
Briefly

Luigi Mangione was charged with terrorism following the December shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, significantly impacting the healthcare industry. The prosecutor argued that Mangione's actions left around 40 executives feeling terrified, prompting them to hire bodyguards and take drastic measures for safety. In an 82-page court filing, it was highlighted that Mangione's motive was rooted in his disdain for the insurance industry, as evidenced by manifestos indicating a desire to strike a blow to the company's financials and likening Thompson to a greedy villain. This incident has sparked a wave of threats against UHC and other healthcare workers, underscoring the unanticipated effects of the violent act.
The terror charge against Luigi Mangione is substantiated by the panic he caused among healthcare executives, leading to increased security measures due to fear for their safety.
The shooting of UHC CEO Brian Thompson was not a robbery but a targeted act against the insurance industry, reflecting Mangione's deep grievance toward the sector.
