The family of Luigi Mangione, the man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, has spoken out following his arrest.
His first cousin, Nino Mangione, a Republican member of the Maryland House of Delegates, shared the family’s message on his X account.
“We cannot comment on news reports regarding Luigi Mangione. We only know what we’ve read in the media. Our family is shocked and devastated by his arrest. We offer our prayers to Brian Thompson’s family and ask people to pray for everyone involved,” the family shared in a statement.
The statement comes shortly after New York City prosecutors charged the 26-year-old with murder.
Mangione is currently being held in Pennsylvania, with plans for his extradition to New York.
