Federal prosecutors say the man accused of starting the Palisades Fire in Los Angeles admired Luigi Mangione, who is accused in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, according to multiple court accounts. Prosecutors allege the suspect expressed fixation with Mangione and framed him as a hero or figure to look up to. They also describe the suspect as resentful of wealthy people and critical of capitalism, including claims that he searched for content such as “Free Luigi” and other references connected to Mangione. Several outlets report that prosecutors characterize the suspect as lonely and angry and allege that after a personal romantic rejection, he went into the mountains and set the fire. In court materials, prosecutors also describe alleged intent and motivation in political or anti-wealth terms, including references to taking down billionaires. The reports are based on prosecutor statements and court documents, and the suspect is presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
