Fans of Luigi Mangione, the alleged killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, are crowdfunding a defense fund for him, having raised thousands of dollars to support the 26-year-old and assist with his legal fees.
Mangione was arrested for the Dec. 4 murder of Thompson, who was shot to death by a hooded figure in the streets of New York City. He was apprehended in a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania, five days after the incident after an employee tipped law enforcement.
