Donations for the legal defense of Luigi Mangione, the 26-year-old charged with the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, topped $55,000 Thursday, amid a wave of online support for the suspect that’s shown no signs of cresting.
There is no evidence this is an official donation fund
He seems like a pretty good lawyer to me. A lot of non-answers. No speculation or sensationalism. He’s controlling the conversation rather than letting the reporters derail it. Any particular reason you think he’s bad?
He isn’t a defense attorney, he does worker comp and divorces too.
I’m not saying he’s terrible, it’s like grabbing the most middle of the road highschool basketball player and throwing him in a NBA Dunk contest and asking why people are saying he won’t perform well.
They’re not saying he’s a bad HS player, they’re saying he is completely out of his league.

Well, first off the murder charges are NY and this guy’s has only practiced in PA, so it’s a safe assumption he hasn’t passed the NY bar…
There’s other reasons, but the fact that this guy literally can only fight the extradition and gun charges.
I feel like it’s a safe bet that Luigi will need another lawyer
Yeah for sure they’ll bring on another lawyer that’s accredited in New York once needed, but that doesn’t mean this lawyer is a bad one.
With the money and resources the government is throwing at this, the five best Lawyers in Altoona wouldn’t be good enough.
Altoona’s metro area is 1/20th of Philly, and an even tinier percentage of Pittsburgh.
This guy is literally just a small town local lawyer.
