Luigi Mangione, the suspect in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, shouted out to the press as Pennsylvania police escorted him into a local courthouse for an extradition hearing on Tuesday.
The 26-year-old Ivy League graduate called out something partially unintelligible, calling it “completely out of touch” and “an insult to the American people.” He also muttered that something was a “lived experience” as a group of officers led him into the Blair County Court House.
It’s not clear what else Mangione yelled toward reporters who had gathered outside the courthouse.
Manigone is expected to be extradited to New York City where he’ll face a murder charge in the December 4 Midtown Manhattan killing of Thompson that set off a massive five-day manhunt.
Police arrested the suspect Monday in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on local charges after they found him in a McDonald’s with a 3-D-printed gun inside his backpack, according to police and a criminal complaint.
