Luigi Mangione was an Ivy League graduate and software engineer with a wide reading list.
The suspect police are questioning in the slaying of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson is an Ivy League graduate software engineer from a prominent Baltimore family who appears to have favorably reviewed the manifesto of Ted Kaczynski, known as the Unabomber, on a book website.
"To the class of 2016, a kind of class that only comes around once every 50 years, it's been an incredible journey and I simply can't imagine the last few years with any other group of guys," he said.CNN has obtained footage of the gun used by the shooter who shot and killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York.
"In high school, I started playing a lot of independent games and stuff like that, but I wanted to make my own game, and so I learned how to code," Mangione said. Private security guards were blocking access to the family's house on a golf club Monday afternoon local time .Police said that when officers detained Mangione, he was carrying a multipage document that expressed "ill will toward corporate America."
"It's easy to quickly and thoughtless write this off as the manifesto of a lunatic, in order to avoid facing some of the uncomfortable problems it identifies. But it's simply impossible to ignore how prescient many of his predictions about modern society turned out," Mangione wrote in a review of the book in January.
