The man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare’s CEO has been charged with murder as an act of terrorism, prosecutors said Tuesday as they worked to bring him to a New York court from a Pennsylvania jail.
Luigi Mangione already was charged with murder in the Dec. 4 killing of Brian Thompson, but the terror allegation is new.
Under New York law, such a charge can be brought when an alleged crime is “intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population, influence the policies of a unit of government by intimidation or coercion and affect the conduct of a unit of government by murder, assassination or kidnapping.”
So if one or more CEO killing happens every day of a calendar year, will we stop giving a shit, like we do with school shootings?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Aren’t we at like 3 mass shootings per day nationwide? It’s not a problem when it’s the masses killing each other. Only when the owning class is hurt.
That’s an interesting theory. I believe it needs vigorous testing.
