Luigi Mangione was not a member of UnitedHealthcare, New York City authorities said this week. Mangione remains jailed in the killing of CEO Brian Thompson.

The man charged in the shooting death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was not a client of the health insurer, FOX Business has learned, amid theories he may have targeted the company head over denied claims. In an interview Thursday with WNBC-TV, NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said Ivy League graduate Luigi Mangione may have targeted the company because of its size and influence. He said a note was found in Mangione's possession when he was detained in Pennsylvania.

It seems that he had an accident that caused him to go to the emergency room back in July of 2023, and that it was a life-changing injury," said Kenny. "He posted X-rays of screws being inserted into his spine. So, the injury that he suffered was, was a life-changing, life-altering injury, and that's what may have put him on this path." Mangione's family reported him missing to San Francisco authorities in November, Kenny said.
