Mangione will head to state court Friday afternoon … marking the first time he will sit before a judge since his arraignment on charges he allegedly shot to death UnitedHealthCare Group CEO Brian Thompson in Midtown Manhattan in December 2024.
I really wish I could see this in person! It’s so beautiful. And it being put up right before his court date is just 🤌. I absolutely love the support he’s getting. They will never silence us. When they try, we find other ways. Thank you to whoever did this! Free Luigi!! 💚💚 pic.twitter.com/ppgT2TnbfI

Luigi pleaded not guilty to state murder and terrorism charges — which could land him behind bars for the rest of his life if found guilty. Federal prosecutors have also charged Luigi with murder and stalking.
The former data engineer has gained a cult following, with supporters saying Luigi was only acting out of rebellion when he allegedly killed Thompson, while pointing out the American medical insurance system is unfair.
Luigi’s defense fund has raised more than $500,000 to help him pay for legal fees ever since his December arrest, with an anonymous donor giving him $11,000 just this week, citing Mangione’s right to a fair trial and due process.

Mangione broke his silence following his arrest on Valentine’s Day … telling fans on his new website he is “overwhelmed by” and “grateful” for their support and assuring them he reads every letter he is sent.
His legal team created the website to “provide answers to frequently asked questions, accurate information about his cases, and dispel misinformation.”
