Conspiracy Unlimited: Following The Truth Wherever It Leads

1180 Inside the Criminal Mind of Luigi Mangione In this gripping episode, Richard unravels the chilling case of Luigi Mangione, a well-educated, upper-class young man suspected of murdering United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson on December 4, 2024. What drives a seemingly privileged individual to commit such a heinous act?
