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.”
It always is to someone, it’s usually just a matter of perspective.
The only people terrorized by this are health insurance CEOs, and they deserve to be terrorized considering how many people their rapacious, brutal profiteering have killed or crippled, both in a medical and financial sense.
