Luigi Mangione's 'Feverish Fans'  Decked Out in Nintendo Outfits  Cheer as He Enters NYC Court
"We are living in a time of rampant human-rights violations. We're seeing it left and right. If they can violate the rights of an attractive white male, what hope do the rest of us have?"
"FREE LUIGI: Never Lose the Plot."
"When Patients Die, Profits Ri$e."
Alleged murderer Luigi Mangione returned to a New York City courtroom greeted by fervent supporters dressed as Super Mario characters. Supporters cheered outside the courthouse, including a woman in a Luigi costume holding a sign reading "FREE LUIGI: Never Lose the Plot" and another in a Bowser costume holding a sign declaring "When Patients Die, Profits Ri$e." Mangione faces a multi-day hearing nearly one year after prosecutors say he shot and killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson; surveillance footage captured the shooting outside a Midtown hotel.

Dozens of supporters reportedly rallied in cold weather, with some traveling significant distances to attend.
