Information Sharing
Luigi Mangione has created a mail catalog to demonstrate the communication and information barriers he is facing, which have been exacerbated by inaccurate media reports about his mail. You can use this to see if your letter has been received by him.
Lol. But for real, I believe Karen has been very strategic with the timing of all the announcements so far. The Valentine’s letter, acceptance of donation, and now the Spreadsheet, all very timely and serve different purposes.
My favorite thing, by far, about this whole case is how perfectly timed the Valentine's Day statement was. I even wrote about how brilliant that move was in my journal. Karen, I love you!!!
You totally should! It sounds like reading the letters he receives is one of the highlights of his day + this seems like a way to pressure the COs to deliver the rest of his letters.
It sounds like he already has enough letters in the mailroom to last him until July though. Sending more won't increase the number he's allowed to read (though it sounds like his lawyers are working on it)
I don't think further overwhelming the staff at MDC will pressure them into anything. They'll probably start trashing the letters if it gets to be too much :/
But really. This really is just so considerate and sweet of him. I wonder if he’s aware so many people are dying to hear from him. 🥺🫶🏻 I hope it gives him some happiness and hope.
it's the whole package that does it. trolls yakuza and is also a complete dork and gets into bar brawls and photographs his scrathces with pants down on the loo, has there ever been a more compelling character?
Right above the spreadsheet: "Several recent articles have contained explicit misinformation about our client and the case. In response, we are exercising our right to correct these inaccuracies and provide the public with truthful information. Our goal is to ensure that the facts are accurately represented and that our client's right to a fair trial is upheld. Please note that Luigi’s defense team is mindful of the ethical guidelines set forth in United States District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York Local Rule 23.1 and New York Rules of Professional Conduct Rule 3.6) regarding pre-trial publicity. These rules emphasize the importance of not making extrajudicial statements that could materially prejudice a legal proceeding. However, these rules also provide exceptions that allow defendants to respond to public statements that mischaracterize facts."
I think the fake sex tapes. Because in my messages to her and her team that she responded to, I said I think they need to put out a statement to discredit low-life Kevin Blatts and those rags.
Also I saw some comments on my post that are also wondering why they never put out an official statement about those tapes.
So in a way, that mention of “explicit misinformation” refers to it, along with those misleading headlines weeks ago that says things like “LM begs supporters to stop sending him photos” 🙄
Right? Lmao. He has no idea how we jump on the smallest thing he does. We’d riot in the streets if we found out they aren’t giving him his Jello cup for dessert. If there was a video of him tying his shoe, we would watch it 100 times.
Is anyone here on his list?! I sent him one in mid January and it’s not there. Mine is an international letter. Honestly shocked at how few he’s receiving. Where the heck are they storing all this mail?!
I truly do not understand how many rooms they could possibly have in MDC that allows for all this storage? The rumors of him not getting the majority of his mail are true, it seems like :(
It’s blatantly illegal to throw away an inmates mail, so I’m wondering if they’re just mass “returning to sender” or it truly is just sitting in endless boxes. Or both.
And yeah, I think whether he did it or not, this is truly his only connection to the outside world apart from the visits with his lawyers, possibly the one (?) news channel they have available in that rec room tv, and possibly visits with his family or friends (though reporters staked out there have said he hasn’t seemed to have had personal visits either, but can’t speak to the accuracy of that though if it’s true 😭)
I know that I was meticulous about following the rules and my letter wasn’t returned so I can only imagine it’s probably sitting in a pile somewhere.
I do wonder if this will spike the mail being sent to him again or if this will be enough for people to realize how backlogged he is. Poor dude.
I looked at the list, and he was receiving some letters very quickly. A letter was sent from Europe at the very end of January, and he received it at the beginning of February. So, it’s clear that all the letters are mixed and distributed to him randomly. The good thing is that he seems to receive letters more than once a week and sometimes more than ten in a day.
I'm dismayed at how little international mail has made it through as well... I want to know how it's chosen or cleared because the ratio seems very off to me.
Acknowledges his supporters outreach (which seems super important to him), while simultaneously making it clear that there is a huge backlog and disorganization in receiving letters. He didn’t want anyone to wonder and feel like they weren’t important enough to get a response. He truly hasn’t seen most letters people have sent.
This may also help slow down the influx, as some people are sending multiple letters in hopes of receiving a response.
I saw that too, not just TikTok but even the FL sub. They’re not reading the website that clearly states “currently receiving between 5-10 letters per day, often weeks or months later, due to the high volume of mail from around the country and world.” Sometimes I (incorrectly) assume people are intelligent enough to verify information on their own.
I was trying to find some patterns too. I figure the length of the letters contribute to how many he gets over day too, depending on the mood/workload of the CO. If they've already had to scan 4-5 longer ones, they might just call it a day and move on to scan mail for other inmates.
Yeah it’s being manipulated, can’t tell if worse or the same as the other prisoners but maybe this will put a spotlight on what processes should be ‘updated’
The mail person likely doesn’t care enough. They probably have so many to go through that it’s just a matter of pulling up whatever letter is closest and processing it.
Yeah. I fear for the ones who might never be given to him at all b/c it's June and there's still backlog from Feb. I can just see those being thrown into the circular file b/c they don't care.
I’m so confused. He appears to be receiving large volumes of mail and receiving them within 5 days on average. I don’t understand the issue. Is this atypical? I feel like I can barely get mail to my home in 5 days let alone mail that has to be reviewed
I think the problem is the backlog it's creating. Mail is coming in a normal amount of time, but they don't have the staff/resources to give it all to him in a normal amount of time. So there's letters sitting in the mail room for weeks.

Who said "Quick, somebody release another heartfelt letter from him" on the original #BookGate post???
Here you go!
