Much has been written about the young man - Luigi Mangione - who shot the health care exec to death on a Manhattan street quite early in the morning. Maybe he’s crazy or maybe he was on some drug.
What I want to know is how he was able to determine where the exec would be on that particular morning on foot on that piece of sidewalk? Mangione got there ahead of time, recognized him in the early morning gloom, and confidently shot him from behind.
The meeting he was headed for may have been advertised, but that the exec would walk to the meeting from his hotel (instead of taking a cab) using that particular route argues someone quite familiar with the exec’s standard operating procedure provided the info. Perhaps posting it on the dark web at an anarchist bulletin board?
Who would have such info? Family or his personal assistant would be the first choices. If Mangione knew someone in the exec’s family or work associates it has not been revealed.
About the weird posting time below: I am about half-sick at the moment and sleeping at irregular hours.
