Moments after Luigi Mangione was handcuffed at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s, a police officer searching his backpack found a loaded gun magazine wrapped in a pair of underwear.

The discovery, recounted in court Monday as Mangione fights to keep evidence out of his New York murder case, convinced police in Altoona, Pennsylvania, that he was the man wanted in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in Manhattan five days earlier.

The only useful outcome is acquittal. These rich board room types need to know they're not safe.

Is it not legal to carry bullets any more?

[–] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 hours ago

This is literally the only unflattering photo of him I've ever seen. He looks like a mob enforcer berating his lawyer.

He hasn't been convicted.

[–] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 17 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Honestly, yeah. There's not any real convincing evidence that he's actually the killer. That said, I'd still suck him off, even if he's not.

A girlfriend recently said "I'll give my man Luigi a DAY PASS," tracing her figure with her hands. Cracked me up.

And the kid later fled to a Mexican resort with his mother.

The word "decided" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence. I would have used the words "was bribed with cash and gifts to let him go free"

Well that clinches it. Bullets are super rare in the US. 

[–] chronicledmonocle@lemmy.world 36 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

I find it hard to believe he was just casually carrying around bullets days after allegedly shooting someone.....

Those were my bullets. They were on loan before we went to the range together.

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 8 points 10 hours ago

Also - these were my underwear. Also on loan.

[–] Sunflier@lemmy.world 14 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Carrying around bullets = murderer?

[–] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 6 points 9 hours ago

It America of all places!

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 9 points 14 hours ago

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 50 points 21 hours ago (6 children)
