‘Justified’: College Students Sympathize With Suspected Ivy League Assassin Over UnitedHealthcare Victim

College students overwhelmingly sympathize with alleged assassin Luigi Mangione over murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, polling from data intelligence company Generation Lab released Thursday found.

Mangione, a 26-year-old University of Pennsylvania graduate whose multi-millionaire family has been described as “Baltimore royalty,” purportedly killed Thompson, a father, husband and successful businessman who grew up in a working class family in rural Idaho, in December. Now, data suggests college students largely side with Mangione over Thompson, with 45% of the 1,026 college students surveyed by Generation Lab saying they sympathize more with Mangione, while just 17% sympathize more with Thompson.
