Luigi Mangione insists toilet intercourse tape being offered on-line for $500,000 is NOT him
Alleged CEO killer Luigi Mangione says he is not the young man seen on a bathroom sex tape reportedly being offered for half a million dollars on the dark web.
‘Hopefully everyone realizes these are fake and not Luigi,’ Mangione’s lawyer Karen Agnifilo told DailyMail.com on Monday.
It comes after sex tape broker Kevin Blatt told The US Sun he had seen a sex video featuring Mangione in his parents’ bathroom. Blatt claimed the alleged killer made the video for a Grindr user who was now trying to sell it for $500,000.
Blatt even shared blurry screenshots he claims show a shirtless Mangione, 26, performing for the Grindr user.
‘The video I have seen is not high production stuff – it’s pretty seedy, solo stuff that looks like he recorded it in a bathroom at his parents’ house and in a bedroom and then sent to a man he met on Grindr in 2020,’ Blatt told The US Sun.
Blatt said Mangione was using an alias on the hooking up app and met at least one man on it.
‘But the phone number the videos were sent from has a Maryland area code, which is where he is from, and you can actually match up his parents’ bathroom from real estate listings of their house,’ Blatt added.

‘And it’s undoubtedly him, when this man saw that Luigi had been arrested he couldn’t believe that was the same guy he met on Grindr.’
However, Blatt also said no one has shown interest in buying the tape because, ‘Most people were like, “I don’t want to touch anything that has to do with murder. I don’t want to support someone accused of murder.'”
Blatt added: ‘It’s the same reason why I don’t want to broker this thing. I want nothing to do with it.’
Mangione’s denial regarding the sex tape comes after Radar Online claimed he made upwards of 20 highly stylized sex tapes before he was arrested on charges of killing healthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York City.
In the weeks that followed his arrest, key details about Mangione’s sex life and health battles were made public.
He had posted on his X page about having a ‘pretty huge d***’, in response to a post asking if anyone on the platform had a PhD.
It also emerged that he had suffered a back injury so severe he was unable to have sex, according to his former roommate.
RJ Martin had lived with the murder suspect for six months at a Hawaii co-living space and told The New York Times of his secret agony.
‘He knew that dating and being physically intimate with his back condition wasn’t possible. I remember him telling me that, and my heart just breaks,’ Martin said.

He added that Mangione had a back condition called spondylolisthesis that was worsened by a surfing accident.
‘His spine was kind of misaligned. He said his lower vertebrae were almost like a half-inch off, and I think it pinched a nerve’, Martin added.
Mangione has pleaded not guilty to multiple counts of murder, including murder as an act of terrorism.
The killing of Thompson as he walked to an investor conference sent shock waves through the corporate world, rattling executives who say they saw a spike in threats.

At the time of his arrest, Mangione had been on the run for five days. Authorities confirmed he was carrying a handwritten manifesto in which he railed against UnitedHealthcare.
In the 262-word document, he criticized corporations for ‘abusing our country for immense profit’ while failing to improve the life expectancy of Americans.
Mangione, who comes from a wealthy family, is the grandson of a self-made multimillionaire who owned a luxury resort, nursing homes, and a radio station.
He attended the prestigious Gilman School in Baltimore — where tuition costs $40,000 per year — and graduated as valedictorian in 2016.
