    The self-made millionaire's grandson wanted to get caught, and did, over fine dining, in Altoona.

    Maybe Law Abiding Citizen is his favorite movie.

    It's not worth it, and they won't, but it would be crazy wild if for some reason someone said, "Nah, not gonna."

    His brother is unjustly imprisoned in a corrupt New York prison and this is the only way he can get in to break him out?

    A potential motive.
    Aaron Cranston, a former classmate of Mangione at Gilman School in Baltimore, said that Mangione was a smart and ambitious student and that it was hard to understand him being suspected in such a crime. The two did not remain close after high school, but Cranston said he and other peers were forwarded a message earlier this year because Mangione’s family was trying to track him down. Cranston said the message reported that family members had not heard from Mangione for several months following a back surgery.

    If you’re looking at this from the standpoint of keeping him out of prison, then plead insanity.

    If you’re looking at this as a continued attack on the healthcare system, then choose a defense that continues to put the health care system on trial.

    My crime of passion defense would be the accused knows people are dying everyday and every hour because of this man’s decisions. Trying to prove that would open everything up publicly.


    I also cannot figure out how he got caught after five days unless he wanted to get caught. Maybe a few weeks in jail will sober him up and realize he wants out ASAP, or he could continue with cause of taking down healthcare in America (if that’s his cause).

    Insanity would be an admission that he was wrong to kill the CEO. I’m not so sure this guy will be willing to do that.

    Why would he, with multiple found fake IDs on him, hand over the one he used to check into the hostel when confronted by cops?

    I think he's under some illusion that this is all some grand design of his making.

    The Mangione case is exactly why Elon instituted his policy to hide posts that users “like.” Only Elon knows the tweets that Mangione liked. And if he liked ones that fit the narrative he wants, they would’ve already been made public. If Mangione liked a bunch of Elon posts would he disclose that?

    Wait, didn't the authorities say like 48 hours ago that they knew who the killer was?
