Officers joked about tip that Luigi Mangione was at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s, where they arrested him

Police involved with Luigi Mangione’s arrest were so skeptical that the tip on his whereabouts was true that they joked about a reward sandwich in text messages, Manhattan state court proceedings revealed on Tuesday.

“He said, ‘if you get the New York City shooter, I’ll buy you a hoagie from a local restaurant,’” testified Joseph Detwiler, an Altoona, Pennsylvania police officer, of texts exchanged with a supervisor. “I said, ‘Consider it done.’”

Corrections officer testifies that Mangione had constant watch to prevent him from dying in custody like Epstein

Luigi Mangione was kept under tight supervision in a Pennsylvania state prison last year because officials “did not want an Epstein-style situation”, a corrections officer said during Manhattan state court testimony on Monday.

This striking allusion to Jeffrey Epstein, the well-connected financier who died in jail awaiting trial on sex-trafficking, came during day one of a potentially week-long proceeding to weigh the legality of evidence gathered during Mangione’s arrest at a McDonald’s restaurant after the killing of a prominent healthcare executive.
