WE TOLD YA SO!

Way back on December 11, 2025,  in our weekly Here’s What We Know, we exclusively revealed that Luigi Mangione was secretly negotiating a plea deal and that it was highly unlikely the case would ever go to trial.  This was a very inside scoop and obviously one that took a great deal of time to come to fruition.  Well , guess what.  WE TOLD YA SO!  TMZ “exclusively” reported on August 12 ( 8 months AFTER we did) that Luigi and his powerful legal team are negotiating a plea deal.  Yup, it was an exclusive scoop – just not to TMZ , but to us!  See link below.

    Mangione kind of reminds me of Eddie Munster from the TV show. So does Barron Trump lol
