In this special episode, retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong digs into the case of Luigi Mangione, the man accused of shooting and killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brain Thompson. Candice breaks down what we know so far – from the morning of the deadly shooting to the moment of Mangione’s arrest – and gives her analysis of what could have caused a wealthy Ivy league grad to eventually become an alleged killer. Also, listen as Candice explores the psychology behind the viral reactions to the murder – and the growing social media support for the suspect himself. Candice is also joined by legal analyst Josh Ritter, who discusses the next steps in Mangione’s legal proceedings and the mounting evidence in this case.
