ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode of The Case: Luigi Mangione, we look into the widespread public fascination of Mangione and violence through what researchers call "assassination culture."
"Assassination culture" is the growing acceptance of violent rhetoric where crimes are celebrated or seen as justified. Perpetrators can be viewed as heroes for ideological reasons or symbols of a broader cause. Whether it's the killing of someone over their political views or violence towards the CEO of a polarizing company, society is becoming more comfortable expressing support for hostility and aggression.
NBC New York's Erica Byfield speaks with Dr. Chloe Carmichael, a clinical psychologist who says Mangione's relatable image has helped fuel public support, with some supporters seeing him as a heroic figure rather than an accused criminal.
