NYPD Chief of detectives Joseph Kenny explained that while Mangione referenced UnitedHealthcare&#8217;s size as the fifth-largest corporation in America, there\u200d are no indications of him being a client, which might\u2063 explain why he targeted the company.<\/p>\n<p>Mangione, arrested\u2063 at a\u2062 Pennsylvania McDonald&#8217;s, faces \u200ccharges for Thompson&#8217;s murder, which occurred \u200coutside a New York hotel. Surveillance footage places him \u200cat the scene, and \u2062his fingerprints were found at the crime site. Despite pleading not guilty and suggesting he \u200bis being\u200c framed, his lawyer has expressed concerns about the evidence against him.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Suspect in UnitedHealthcare CEO murder case lacked insurance ties to company<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1907933\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Authorities said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/3255389\/who-is-luigi-mangione-man-arrested-unitedhealthcare-ceo-shooting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Luigi Mangione<\/a>, whom police suspect killed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/health-insurance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">UnitedHealthcare<\/a> CEO Brian Thompson, was not insured by the company.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny announced on Thursday that there are no records of Mangione being insured by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/unitedhealth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"UnitedHealth Group,\">UnitedHealth Group,<\/a> the country&rsquo;s largest health insurance company.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We have no indication that he was ever a client of United Healthcare, but he does make mention that it is the fifth-largest corporation in America, which would make it the largest healthcare organization in America,&rdquo; Kenny said during an interview with NBC News.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;So that&rsquo;s possibly why he targeted that company,&rdquo; the NYPD detective added.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Police arrested Mangione at a Pennsylvania McDonald&rsquo;s on Dec. 9, charging him with the murder of Thompson.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The UnitedHealthcare CEO was gunned down outside a New York hotel last week.
