Apparently it is very American - we’re about to see Trump pardon the January 6th folks so here we are.

Yeah. Mangione was a member of the underclass. /s
But even the wealthy get f***ed by insurance companies. We have a HHI but had a huge problem with an insurance company. I completely understand Mangione’s rage. I have felt it (still do from time to time) but obviously I didn’t go shoot the CEO of Aetna. I was literally running the cost of suing Aetna against the cost of paying for a procedure out of pocket. Suing a large insurance company is super expensive because they have a team of lawyers whereas I would probably be penniless from hiring one lawyer to sue. I don’t think most people understand how expensive a lawsuit is and how draining emotionally and financially it would be. You may win coverage but you will spend everything in lawyer fees.
But that doesn’t sound like what even happened to him. He wanted a particular spinal surgery and the doctor refused to do it. Seems like it wasn’t indicated, wouldn’t help, risk didn’t out weigh the benefits, etc. It wasn’t even a matter of insurance. But this stuff happens ALL the time. People think they need a lot of things that they really don’t. And him being as “smart” of course thinks he knows better than the doctors and it’s all a conspiracy
His manifesto does not say this. He talked about his mom’s and his treatment being denied by UHC.
Someone found his Reddit posts about wanting the spine surgery and the doctor wouldn’t do it. His mom had the money to pay for whatever treatment she needed, insurance or not- I cannot imagine she went without anything she deemed she needed. No way UHC forced limits to her care she couldn’t have over ridden herself and payed for

Correct
He got laid off and something about back pain.
Billions of people have lived through both of those and more and not murdered anyone.

Was wondering the same. You’d think he could have his pick of lawyers for this case.
He probably hired the local attorney to handle the local issues: extradition and bond hearing. This does not mean he can’t hire another lawyer once he is extradited to NY (which he is fighting but he will eventually be sent). The Altoona lawyer apparently has handled high profile cases (including death penalty ones) and is well regarded. This lawyer may have been assigned to him or he could have gone to him to offer his services or his parents may have hired him.
His parents probably hired the lawyer.
Mr Ivy League was not smart to wear the mask in Altoona. He looked exactly like the many photos released of him.

They specifically said that nobody had called in with his name.
I really think there was disbelief that their friend, their son, their relative was the shooter. They probably thought it was funny that the shooter look like their friend.

Probably. He’d gone missing/become estranged, and when the full facial pics came out, you’ve got to think she recognized him.
What about his father? Are we only blaming the mom when Luigi has a dad, two siblings, around 30 cousins and 16-20 aunts and uncles?

I saw that. And the attorney made a statement along the lines of “I have seen no evidence that leads me to believe they have the right man.”
Um….ok. Good luck talking through that one.
