New details have emerged about Luigi Mangione, the man charged with murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, in high school yearbook photos that give more insight into Mangione’s teenage years.
Authorities identified Luigi Mangione, a 26-year-old former Ivy League student at UPenn, as a person of interest in the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, The Gateway Pundit reported Monday.
Mangione was spotted scarfing down a hash brown at McDonald’s moments before his arrest.
Mangioni was charged with second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson late Monday night.
Authorities also discovered Mangione wrote a manifesto confessing to the murder and railing against America’s health industry.
The Gateway Pundit reported on Mangione’s published manifesto, where he admits he is responsible for Thompson’s death and that he acted alone. He then apologizes for “any strife or traumas, but it had to be done” and says that “these parasites simply had it coming.”
“To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience,” Mangioni writes in his manifesto.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the suspect was born and raised in the Baltimore, Maryland area, and his family owns multiple businesses in Baltimore City or Baltimore County, including Hayfields Country Club in Cockeysville and a radio station.
He is also a cousin of Republican State Delegate Nino Mangione, who has been in office since 2019, The Gateway Pundit reported.
The Gateway Pundit recently learned from a former high school classmate of Mangione that he was popular, intelligent, and outgoing. “He was well-studied and well-read, smart, athletic, socially well-adjusted, and had a lot of good friends,” the classmate, Freddie Leatherbury, told us.

Mangioni was valedictorian of his high school class at Gilman School in 2016. Gilman School, an all-boys private country day school on the outskirts of Baltimore, addressed the incident in a letter to the community.
Yearbook photos from his Senior year show that Mangione was involved in several extracurricular activities, including the robotics club and Model UN, where students represent countries in simulations of the United Nations. Mangioni also did community service in the healthcare industry at Lorien Health nursing home. He apparently went by the nicknames “Pepperoni,” “GI Squeeji,” and “30 Degrees” among his peers.
Mangione also won the superlative for “Best at Pick-up Lines.”
