When Luigi Mangione was brought to New York from Pennsylvania, he appeared in a different shaven look triggering questions as to how he got a trim inside the jail. Now a Daily Mail report has revealed that it was an inside job as Luigi’s fellow inmates arranged for his shaving as Luigi Mangione became a hero inside the jail as well. As long as Luigi remained in the Huntingdon correctional institute, it remained in the news with reporters swarming to the jail talking about its living conditions etc. All this gave a vigilante status to Luigi inside the jail as well — getting him some privileges like a clean shave etc.
The DailyMail report claimed that Mangione “even shared the proceeds of his notoriety with his fellow inmates in Pennsylvania, who have also expressed support for him and might have even helped him get a ‘glow up’ before his extradition to New York City.
The other prisoners in the Pennsylvania jail too had a ‘weird fixation’ about him and the barbershop head in the jail went to him to give him a trim while prisoners cannot get a haircut or facial inside jail. “Prisoners of his caliber do not get special treatment inside prison…His glow-up was an inside job and this is due to the fact he has become a kind of vigilante of sorts,” a source told DailyMail.
“It was bizarre to guards and prison staff how he had become a hero in the inside and outside,’ the source added.
Karen Agnifilo praised for strong defense, Marc Agnifilo too joins Luigi’s legal team
The adulation for Luigi Mangione translated into praises for Karen Agnigfilo who debated in the court on Monday that her client is innocent until proven guilty but statements issued by government officials like New York mayor Eric Adams do not have that scope and they are calling him a murderer and not an accused murderer.
Karn Agnifilo’s husband Marc Agnifilo who is representing Sean Diddy’s case has also joined the legal team of Mangione.
