Luigi Mangione, accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, pleaded not guilty amidst protests from his fans advocating against the death penalty. Outside the Manhattan federal court, approximately 20 supporters expressed their belief that Mangione is a scapegoat. One protester cited personal stories about the inhumanity of death row, while signs showcased anti-health insurance slogans connected to the case. The U.S. Attorney General has declared intentions to pursue capital punishment for Mangione, marking a significant legal battle ahead.
Many protesters' signs seen outside the courthouse also held the anti-health insurance company slogan, 'Deny, Delay, Depose.' The use of this slogan has skyrocketed in popularity after it was reported that the ominous message was scribbled into ammunition recovered at the Manhattan murder scene.
'Luigi is a fall guy,' declared April Smith, 49, who trekked from Long Island City wearing gold eyelashes. 'The death penalty is inhumane,' she said. 'I am hoping he will find the right people to help him out of his situation.'
