The case of Luigi Mangione has become one of the most closely followed criminal cases in America.

Mangione is accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, who was shot dead in Manhattan in December 2024. The case has attracted extraordinary public attention, from the circumstances surrounding Thompson's death to the reaction to Mangione himself.

Professor David Wilson and Martin Frizell examine the case against Mangione, the evidence surrounding the shooting and the unusual legal questions emerging as the case progresses.

They also discuss the intense fascination with Mangione, why this particular case has captured so much attention and what could happen next as the legal proceedings continue.
