The internet is in full meltdown mode after bombshell rumors surfaced claiming that accused killer Luigi Mangione kept a secret stash of high-production-value sex tapes. The alleged murderer, who has inexplicably become a thirst-trap icon online, is now at the center of a scandal that has Twitter (or X, as it’s now called) in an absolute frenzy.
Did Mangione really film his own X-rated tapes?
The wild claims were first reported by Radar, which cited an unnamed source who described the supposed tapes as “cinema-level quality” with “perfect lighting.” But in a classic case of internet hysteria, there is zero actual evidence that these tapes exist. That hasn’t stopped social media from losing its mind over the mere idea of them.
In a bizarre twist, Mangione—who is facing 11 criminal charges, including first-degree murder and terrorism-related offenses for allegedly gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson—has somehow become an internet sex symbol. Fans camped outside his most recent court hearing, gushing over his “haunting stare” and “intellectual aura.” Now, the alleged tapes have only added fuel to the fire.
Social media goes wild
The rumor mill exploded, with users either searching desperately for the so-called tapes or outright mocking the hysteria. One viral post, dripping with sarcasm, read: “Luigi Mangione sex tapes dropped… disgusting… horrible… can’t believe we’re objectifying him… send me the link pls.” Another joked: “Me at work casually searching for Luigi Mangione sex tape.”
Despite the obsession, some users aren’t buying it. A resurfaced New York Times interview with a former roommate of Mangione claimed he had severe physical pain that prevented him from having sex. This has only deepened the mystery—how could a man who allegedly couldn’t have sex have filmed dozens of tapes?
What happens next?
Mangione has remained silent on the rumors, though his legal defense team previously released a statement thanking his growing fanbase for their “overwhelming support.” But with his next federal court appearance set for March 19, the internet will be watching closely—not for evidence in his murder case, but for proof that these elusive tapes actually exist.
