Luigi Mangione pleads guilty in killing of UnitedHealthcare boss Brian Thompson
andLuigi Mangione pleaded guilty in federal court to two crimes connected to the December 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Mangione entered a guilty plea to one count of interstate stalking resulting in death and one count of stalking through use of interstate facilities resulting in death, according to CNN and The New York Times.
At a New York City federal courthouse on Friday, Aug. 14, Mangione responded “yes” when U.S. District Judge Margaret Garnett asked if he did intend to plead guilty, per CNN.
Mangione then reportedly read a statement in court, saying that after years of debilitating back pain, he researched UnitedHealthcare’s investor conference, posed as an investor and learned it was being held in New York.

THE DEI INDUSTRY FINALLY FOUND ITS ICARUS
Aug 14, 2026
Jason Arday's resignation is not a personal tragedy. It is an indictment of an industry, in academia and in publishing, that stopped checking IDs at the door.
Jason Arday resigned his Cambridge professorship and his Jesus College fellowship on August 5, hours after The Telegraph revealed he had spent years claiming credit for a book he never wrote. He had listed himself as author of “Being Young, Black and Male: Challenging the Dominant Discourse,” attributed to Palgrave Macmillan, in his own biography, conference material, and an essay on racism in higher education. Palgrave confirmed the manuscript was abandoned years ago and never published. That is not a footnote error. It is the claim that broke him, arriving atop a plagiarism finding, a fabricated fundraising total, and a police force that spent four months investigating the reporter who asked about it all.

FROM THE FABULOUS ALEX BERENSON---UNREPORTED TRUTHS---ON THE ROT IN HIGHER EDUCATION, DEI, JASON ARDAY AND SO MUCH MORE
The sad story of Jason Arday — who became the youngest black professor at the University of Cambridge despite a resume that turned out to be written on toilet paper— has spotlighted the damage academia has done itself with its endless journey into the intellectual desert of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
DEI has become an excuse for colleges and universities to leave free inquiry behind and flatten standards to protect unqualified students and faculty. (Some of you have noted that even medical schools have compromised their admissions and grading to increase diversity; I will explore that issue further shortly.)
But the crisis in higher education goes past its embrace of diversity at any cost. Tuesday’s article about Arday provoked many responses. One email, from a professor at a large public university, particularly stood out. With the professor’s permission, I am publishing it below. I am not naming him or his school, for reasons that will be obvious.
(Honest work is harder than ever to find. I hope you’ll support mine.) READ MORE AT (3) On the rot in higher education - by Alex Berenson
