Luigi Mangione has reportedly become somewhat of a “hero” among his fellow inmates at Brooklyn prison, much to the displeasure of Sean “Diddy” Combs. According to a source, the music mogul has been throwing tantrums over the attention Mangione is receiving, especially given that Mangione is facing charges for murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on camera. The source noted that Mangione, who was arrested on January 9, is being revered by the inmates, particularly after they began sharing stories about losing loved ones to poor medical care, a theme that resonates with Mangione’s actions.
Despite both Mangione and Diddy sharing the same legal team—whose attorneys are married to each other—the two men have not interacted during their time in prison. Diddy is currently awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges and other sexual harassment cases, while Mangione is facing multiple murder charges, including one under the terrorism act, and has pleaded not guilty in court. The contrast in their legal predicaments seems to have fueled some tension, with Diddy reportedly feeling overshadowed by the attention Mangione is garnering.
