Fascinating article about Luigi Mangione's family. My wife put forth a theory that he revolted against his family. His family has long been involved in heathcare with both philanthropic and profit making motives. Apologies if you are paywall blocked. www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/cr... - ThreadSky

Unfortunately I'm paywall blocked, I have to make assumptions based on the headline.
The guys family is loaded and they have high up connections in the healthcare industry. They are big donors to a large hospital in Baltimore.
It was not a money issue. Something else is going on.

Sure running off to Hawaii, who wouldn't want to do that? He ditched his family. Makes no sense, they could have supported him. Something else is going on? I'm betting on a political divide. Maybe his family are Trump supporters and they disgusted him?

Perhaps more of the story will be revealed. Chronic pain can and does change people’s personalities. Pain management in US medicine is abysmal.

I wonder if other studies have been done on the reduction of glutamate levels? Particularly in people suffering from mental illness?

Chronic pain.

That radio station his family owned, WCBM, was right wing before Fox became the mouthpiece of the right wing. Their top program spewed fourth Rush Limbaugh's sewage.
