Luigi Mangione, the suspect in the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO, was found with a Faraday bag that blocked cell phone service when he was arrested in Pennsylvania. During his court appearance, Mangione claimed that the bag was simply a waterproof bag, downplaying its significance.

At his arraignment in Blair County Court in Hollidaysburg, prosecutors revealed that Mangione was carrying $10,000 in cash, including $2,000 in foreign currency. However, Mangione disputed this claim, stating that he was unaware of the origin of the money and suggested that it may have been planted on him.

Claimed bag was waterproof, not significant.

His statement, 'I don't know where that money came from. It must have been planted. I don't have that kind of cash,' raises questions about the source of the funds and adds another layer of mystery to the case.
