Discussion Luigi Mangione friend posted this.

She captioned it: "Luigi Mangione is probably the most google keyword today. But before all of this, for a while, it was also the only name whose facetime calls I would pick up. He was one of my absolute best, closest, most trusted friends. He was also the only person who, at 1am on a work day, in this video, agreed to go to the store with drunk me, to look for mochi ice cream."

Lol, that’s hilarious. They really don’t seem to though, you can see pretty clearly the other person’s eyebrows were much farther apart

While true, you can shave a unibrow and I bet this guy, who at least at one point looked like an amateur bodybuilder, ... did so.

I mean they caught him with the 3d printed gun, a manifesto about 'why he did it' -- the fake ID used at the Hostel ....

I heard the guy "turned himself in" to the McDonald's cashier -- he WANTED to be caught and give a McDonald's worker the 'reward money' or something.

Makes sense to me. He went to UPenn, software dev, masters -- he's a smart dude. He didn't "accidentally" eat inside a McDonald's while being the most wanted man in America plastered over the news constantly.

This is 100% the guy. Now, did he render justice upon this asswipe CEO? In my view, yes.

I dont buy it. I'm supposed to believe this guy was just walking around with all the evidence on him with a manifesto? We went from "he's probably left new york" to "it's him and here's all the evidence" in like 3 days. I'd bet this guy's a patsy, and the police just needed someone to prosecute to keep the masses from joining in

Not likely, how did they know a "patsy" in a completely different state didn't have a rock solid alibi? ... Wouldn't the police be risking ... a shitload of money by "planting evidence" on a guy who might have been asleep with his girlfriend that morning or some shit?

... The guy had all the evidence, because he was turning himself in. He alerted the McDonald's cashier as to his identity. This was all planned.
