Spinal Surgery and Privilege: The Downfall of UnitedHealthcare CEO's Alleged Killer
Luigi Mangione, a 26-year-old University of Pennsylvania graduate, has been charged with the murder of UnitedHealthcare executive Brian Thompson in Manhattan. Mangione, who was arrested in Altoona, Pennsylvania, had a history of back pain and underwent spinal surgery, which reportedly affected his personal life and mental health. Known for his thoughtful nature, Mangione was involved in a book club that controversially read Ted Kaczynski's manifesto. His recent withdrawal from social circles contrasts with his previously active and compassionate persona.
