YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

An admirer of Luigi Mangione reportedly tried to spring him from a federal lockup in Brooklyn, New York — the latest example of how a cult seems to have grown around the alleged murderer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. “He almost has like a Charles Manson following, and it’s pretty scary that you have a cult and people willing to do anything for this man,” Gene Borello, a former mob enforcer who spent time in the facility where Mangione is being held, tells “Jesse Weber Live.”

"Jesse Weber Live" brings a fresh, fast-paced, and often unexpected take on the day’s headlines, diving into the biggest stories through the lens of legal expertise. Weeknights at 11p/10C.
