The year 2024 ended with a case that has captured the attention of all media in the United States: the murder of CEO of United Healthcare, Brian Thompson, allegedly by Luigi Mangione. The 26-year-old man has become a personality on the internet and the phenomenon he has caused has even worried authorities.
In the midst of the 'fascination' surrounding Mangione, TMZ released a new documentary titled "Luigi Mangione: The Mind of a Killer," revealing new details of the case. One of them is that the man visited a luxurious shooting range during his vacation in Thailand, just a few months before fatally shooting the insurance businessman.
What did the TMZ material reveal about Luigi Mangione?
According to TMZ's report, friends of Mangione claimed that the alleged killer of CEO Brian Thompson went to a shooting range after leaving the United States on a solo trip through Asia in early 2024.
According to two German tourists who met him during their travels, Mangione skipped a day at the beach and went to visit the shooting range, according to the friends, who were only identified as Paul and Max.
The couple, who claimed to travel a lot with Mangione through Asia, pointed out that he was obsessed with the book by Indian author Jash Dhokani "Hit Reverse: New Ideas From Old Books", which verifies philosophical points of view from different authors, as reported by the New York Post.
In fact, he even bought 400 copies of the book and flew to Mumbai to try to give his personal opinion to the author, indicated the German travelers.
The supposed visit to the shooting range occurred just a few months before Mangione, who lost contact with his family at some point during his trip to Asia and was eventually reported missing, reappeared in New York City and allegedly killed the head of medical care on December 4th, in a case that has shaken the United States and the world.
