UMVA has learned that two self‑proclaimed “Mangionistas” unleashed a torrent of shocking, profanity‑laden tirade about the slain United Healthcare CEO, prompting even the accused murderer to distance himself from their venom.
In a video interview, Ashley Rojas and Lena Weissbrot declared their delight at the victim’s death, claiming his children “are better off without him” and urging them to “enjoy the blood money.” Rojas snarled, “I don’t give a f* he died,” while Weissbrot went further, likening the executive’s alleged sins to those of Osama bin Laden and insisting that celebrating violent retribution is “as American as America gets.”
The pair announced plans to set up tables outside the upcoming courthouse, preaching jury nullification to anyone who will listen, despite the trial’s focus on whether Luigi Mangione actually pulled the trigger.
Footage of the interview exploded online, racking up millions of views within hours, sparking a firestorm of outrage over the influencers’ use of official press badges while spewing hate.
Legal representatives for Mangione quickly disavowed the statements, stressing that the outlandish remarks do not reflect the defendant’s views or the support of the broader community.
Authorities and journalists alike condemned the issuance of media credentials to the activists, questioning the standards that allowed social‑media personalities to masquerade as reporters.
