Luigi Mangione, the suspect arrested in connection with the December 4 shooting of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, has a surprising background in game development. According to his LinkedIn profile, Mangione interned at Firaxis Games, the studio behind the popular Civilization series. During his time at Firaxis, Mangione worked as a UI Programming Intern on Civilization VI, where he was credited with fixing over 300 UI bugs, representing 25% of the total UI bug count.
