President Trump Supporter Claims Suspected Killer Luigi Mangione Wrote Him a Letter From Prison

Podcaster Patrick Bet-David, a longtime supporter of President Donald Trump, claims that he has been communicating with suspected killer Luigi Mangione.

In a video shared Monday, April 6, to his Valuetainment YouTube channel, the PBD Podcast host, 47, told viewers, “My assistant comes to me to say, ‘You got a letter from Luigi Mangione.”

While Bet-David didn’t share too many details of its contents, he said that it would be an “understatement” to say it was well-written.

Mangione is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn after being accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

“This was written as if a kid went to Harvard or Yale — good writer, sense of humor, sarcasm, witty, even a riddle in there,” Bet-David said of Magione, who actually went to the Ivy League University of Pennsylvania.

“You can tell he’s very intellectual [and that there’s] deep meaning in the way he’s writing his stuff,” Bet-David added.

Bet-David claimed that Mangione, 27 — who reportedly reflected on the 27 things he’s grateful for after his birthday — is sharing the podcaster’s book Your Next Five Moves (which was allegedly on the list) with his fellow inmates.

In the letter, according to Bet-David, Mangione wrote, “Pat, out of all the 27 things I wrote that I was grateful for, the one that I got the most hate mail was No. 7, Your Next Five Moves. A lot of girls who are Gen Z were not happy about that.”

Mangione allegedly told Bet-David, “You have a Gen Z female problem.”

Bet-David, who debated on whether or not he should respond to Mangione, said he ultimately wrote a response to the murder suspect. In it, he asked Mangione “so many questions.”

While Bet-David didn’t share too many other details of the exchange, he pointed out, “This guy had back issues, he had certain health problems, his grandpa was a very successful businessman, made a lot of money. He had the trajectory of… He was a valedictorian, this is not a regular kid, he is a valedictorian.”

“[Mangione] could have been a net positive to society, working, building a business, creating jobs, maybe getting involved in politics, doing something positive for the world,” Bet-David reflected. “He had that brain to do it, he had the genetics to do it.”
