He kills a man on a NYC sidewalk — then sits at McDonald’s for 40 minutes while law enforcement hunts him. He gives his real name without fight, never touches the gun, then talks endlessly in custody. What kind of killer behaves like that?

In Part 2, former FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins to interpret the odd psychology and what it might mean for the future of the case.

We explore:

  • Whether Mangione looked like a desperate fugitive — or someone who wanted to be caught.

  • What it means that he surrendered immediately, talked about a knife cops “missed,” and revealed sensitive details in jail.

  • The controversial manifesto that named him a “health-care avenger,” his ideology, and the weird fan base rallying behind him.

  • The messy legal battlefield ahead — federal death-penalty exposure, multiple jurisdictions, and court dates stretching months or years.

  • The danger of copycats if this case becomes a martyr-dominated cause.

Tune in for a full read of Mangione’s mindset, motivations, and what’s likely coming next — and why this might be more than just a murder trial.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
