You mean the $60k bounty? The cops will happily relinquish that $50k as promised. Keep in mind that the $40k will only be given if it leads to a conviction, though, and the bank will probably put a hold on the full $30k. But that's OK. $20k is still a life-changing amount, even if you won't get all of the promised $10k after taxes.
It was done on the clock. So the restaurant owner is going to claim it.
I don't know if this is /s or not at this point.
It's always surprising how little it takes for the rich to make people turn against others.
Hell, $60k? You can buy a senator for less.
McDonald's is alt right as far as I'm concerned. Added to the Chick-fil-A bin of fuck sticks.
He was carrying around the gun and a manifesto... he was trying to be caught. Dude probably was going out to eat every meal and getting frustrated that no one called the cops on him till today.
Carrying the gun seems particularly fucking stupid.
Like suspiciously stupid. Getting caught, even if you get your manifesto out there, doesn't really help your cause. Disappearing; leaving a constant doubt of a professional killer hunting insurance CEOs would.
So here's hoping Luigi plays along for a couple weeks and goes "haha suckers, here's my alibi."
And, from all accounts, this guy was not stupid - high school valedictorian, high honors in college, tech bro who made or acquired a ghost gun. My guess is the evidence was planted or he wanted to get caught. I mean, it was a ghost gun - he could have melted it down or broke it into pieces, etc. Why would he still have it?
Why would he still have it?
Mental disease or defect? But yeah I've seen what folks are writing about the dude and he certainly doesn't seem "stupid" on paper.
Seems sus. The guy didn't look like the other photos to me and why would you keep evidence on your person like that? Why not ditch the gun and jacket? Seems like someone taking the fall so the cops and stuff look good.
You asked why as a reply to a comment that suggested he wanted to get caught. That would be the why.
Perhaps he wants to have his day in court and air out what these evil companies do.
Seems like he could've done that by posting a YouTube video and turning himself in if he wanted to be caught that easily.
You can like, get more guns. Or hide them in advance.
Apparently he had some pending YouTube videos being published, but YouTube took down his account.
Also, he stated to the police that he didn't know where the money came from, suspecting it might have been a plant.
The Golden Arches and their snitches deserve the single finger salute. On the other hand, what would you do if you were making minimum wage with pathetic benefits? $50k would be helpful, unless the clown buys a Dodge Charger.
Well, you would have to quit your job and go into hiding because the whole country wants to dox you and that 50k (maximum) would only get you so far
Is it 50k tax free? Lol or is is taxed as a bonus?
After a quick Google search it seems that it would be taxed as income.
I've always wondered why they don't just account for tax and just give them enough that after taxes is the amount stated but then ol uncle Sam can't get his fingers wet by shoving them up your ass.
I wouldn't count on that reward money.
Insurance companies aren't exactly famous for paying what they owe.
It's worth noting that we don't know exactly why they called the cops. It appears the cops didn't know who he was until they had him pull down his mask. I'm guessing he was quite the sight after several days on the run, and probably several nights without much sleep. Some reporting also stated that they called the police on behest of an alarmed customer.
lol "snitch" "hey, dont tell anyone that he just murdered someone because we didnt like the guy. laws? naw fuck that eye for an eye"
Considering how many deaths that guy was responsible for in chasing another dollar, it was essentially self-defense, not murder.
If another country was responsible for that many suffer Americans congress would have likely declared war already.
right eye for an eye mentality. what a sad world we live in
Take your fake pearl clutching to the shareholders meeting. Are you upset because Luigi didn't do it for profit?
Eye for an eye: bad. Eye for a dollar: righteous.
When does the killing make the world not sad for you? One death is apparently upsetting. A hundred dead then? Thousands? Or is the number of lives less important than if it's done for profit?
right. find whatever helps you sleep at night.
We see every day corporate figureheads and politicians skirting the law. If our system turns a blind eye to the rich and powerful, we can turn a blind eye as well. It's how the mafia got away with so much crime. They took care of the neighborhoods they hid in.
I understand, but i don't agree with murder being the solution. This is why i'm glad i live in canada and not the USA, its been a shithole for decades and its not getting any better
Looks like the reviews were taken down? Not seeing any on google maps
Google frequently freezes reviews on places getting review bombed. Same thing happened to the hostel he was at, and even for much smaller places I've seen appear on the local news - that kinda thing
Corps stick up for corps.
What’s great is that this will piss off corporate and management MUCH more than the average employee.
As it should be. Fuckin narcs.
Doxing anyone? Snitches get stitches....
What's the source of that right thumbnail image
Apparently it was his (now deleted) YouTube profile picture? I found this other article on the same site
Damn, he really liked McDs I guess, a bit unexpected.
“No chance youtube will let the video see the light of day”
Probably right about that.
Really?
The account was created on Jan. 20, 2024, and its "About" section included known details about Mangione, including his age, 26, and bachelor's and master's degrees in computer science from the University of Pennsylvania.
Not rich person = as long as they want
Here is the address of the McDonalds if anyone wants to leave a review regarding their experience.
407 E Plank Rd Altoona, PA 16602
I think it's comical that the normal 1 star reviews are getting hundreds of likes lol
Let it be known I don't associate with any of ya'll.
You think you can threaten me mr. Wannabe Protagonist? We're gonna see how many lives you have.
Maybe instead of fetishising over serial killing you could promote single payer and make an actual impact on the world.
Youz a bitch bootlicker!
You'll see lots of boots up real close if you help some violent extremists overthrow the system you voted to make steaming dogshit in the first place.
go ahead bitch corporate America will be destroyed lmao. Soon you will be kissing my feet.
Wannabe Joseph Stalin is so cringe
