All right, shifting gears now, what would it feel like to capture the most wanted man in the country? Well, we're getting a sense of that through dramatic body cam footage of the arrest of Luigi Mangione, and it was just unsealed by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office.
This was all back in December before the crowds of Mangione's morally twisted sycophants began making pilgrimages to the lower Manhattan courthouse where his case is being adjudicated.
You remember, this happened after a five-day nationwide manhunt for him following the cold-blooded shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Mangione was about to enjoy his last meal as a free man at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania.
That's him sitting down at the table about to eat when police come over to ask him some questions.
down here or what? No, I'm homeless.
You're homeless? We're just trying to confirm your name and we'll get out of here.
How long you been here? Because someone said you've been here for a while.
About 40 minutes.
Okay.
Yes, he's here, Tom.
It's him.
I'm not kidding.
He's real nervous and he's not talking too much.
I asked if he had been up in New York recently.
And, Tom, I'm about 100% sure it's him.
The videos show Mangione identifying himself to the officers as they searched his bags to ensure he didn't have a bomb.
They immediately proceed to arrest Mangione and take him to the police station.
And there, they continue to search his possessions, where they would eventually find a 9-millimeter handgun, authorities confirmed was used in the killing.
The videos were shown during a suppression hearing last December, but were just now released publicly for the first time.
Mangione's New York state murder trial was postponed indefinitely after he pleaded guilty to federal stalking charges this past August.
