Luigi Mangione, 26, has been charged with second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of Brian Thompson — CEO of UnitedHealthcare, the nation’s largest health insurer — outside a midtown Manhattan hotel on Dec. 4.
Mangione pleaded not guilty to weapons charges in Pennsylvania on Tuesday, after he was nabbed a day earlier while eating at a McDonald’s in an Altoona, Pa., following a five-day manhunt.
The Ivy League grad from a wealthy and “beloved” Maryland family is fighting extradition to New York, where he faces the murder charge, among others.
