(New York, NY) — Luigi Mangione celebrated his 27th birthday behind bars, and got a pretty big present: His legal defense fund is now topping more than one-million-dollars.
More than 28-thousand people have donated to the Mangione online GiveGoSend account with a average donation of 20-dollars.
The University of Pennsylvania graduate is pleading not guilty to stalking and murder charges in the deadly December shooting in Midtown Manhattan that claimed the life of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Mangione is due back in state court on June 26th with his federal trial due to start in December.
