Luigi Mangione<\/strong><\/a>‘s legal defense fundraiser is still going strong despite his recent guilty plea in the federal case tied to the death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson<\/strong><\/a> … and GiveSendGo says there’s a simple reason why.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

A GiveSendGo spokesperson tells TMZ the fundraiser was created to cover Mangione’s legal defense costs across three separate cases and remains active because he still faces unresolved legal matters.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

As you know … Mangione pleaded guilty<\/strong><\/a> Friday to two federal stalking charges related to Thompson’s death. He is still facing a separate New York state case, and his federal sentencing is scheduled for December 18.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The GiveSendGo spokesperson explains the platform’s policy requires money raised through legal-defense fundraisers involving violent or weapons-related charges to be received by a licensed attorney or law firm. In Mangione’s case, the spokesperson says the guilty plea does not change the status of the fundraiser while his remaining cases are active.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

The spokesperson also stresses that keeping the fundraiser online should not be interpreted as an endorsement of Mangione, his alleged actions or his public statements … adding “Hosting a fundraiser has never been an endorsement of a person, their actions, or their public statements.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

GiveSendGo also says it doesn’t decide who deserves financial support, and leaves that decision to individual donors.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

The fundraiser has drawn continued contributions from supporters even after Mangione’s guilty plea. As we previously reported … donations increased<\/strong><\/a> by roughly $1,000 in the hours following his court appearance — and another roughly $3,000 has been raised since then.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

For now, the fundraiser remains open as Mangione’s legal team deals with the remaining proceedings … with GiveSendGo maintaining that its role is simply to provide access to lawful fundraising, not to take a position on the case.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
