Mangione was denied bail late on Monday evening.
According to Fox News, Mangione was denied bail late on Monday evening. He will also not waive his extradition to New York where he will be tried for murder.
"My client will not waive extradition today," Mangione’s lawyer said in court. He will be staying in Pennsylvania’s State Correctional Institution of Huntingdon until paperwork gets filed to move him to New York. Mangione, when he was taken into custody in Pennsylvania, had a handwritten manifesto railing against the healthcare industry in his possession.
"To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone," he wrote in the manifesto. He condemned healthcare companies that he claimed "continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allowed them to get away with it."
Additionally, he said, “These parasites had it coming,” and claimed that “it had to be done.”
Mangione reportedly lost contact with some friends after getting back surgery and taking a trip to Hawaii. Many were surprised to know that he later committed the alleged murder. RJ Martin, a former roommate of Mangione, said that Mangione “said he had a back issue, and he was hoping to get stronger in Hawaii.” He apparently took one surfing lesson which left the alleged killed in bed for a week.
"His spine was kind of misaligned. He said his lower vertebrae were almost like a half-inch off, and I think it pinched a nerve. Sometimes he’d be doing well and other times not," Martin said of Mangione. The alleged shooter had gotten screws put in his spine.
Mangione has been charged in the death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thomspon, who was shot and killed last week in Manhattan outside a Hilton Hotel in the early hours of the morning.
Mangione reportedly laid "in wait” for Thompson and then shot him in the back in a targeted attack. He had traveled from Atlanta, Georgia to New York on a bus and used a “ghost gun” that some believe to be 3D printed.
