10 Nov
Summary
- Mangione involved in ladyboy bar brawl in Bangkok over $1,500 scam
- Survived attack by up to 7 ladyboys, bragged about it to friend
- Mangione accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO in December 2024
In November 2025, a new book titled "Last Known Contact" is set to expose details about Luigi Mangione's wild night out in Bangkok, Thailand in 2024, months before he was accused of murdering a UnitedHealthcare CEO.
According to the book, written by an anonymous author who claims to have traveled with Mangione, the 27-year-old backpacker found himself in a bizarre altercation at a local sex bar in the Thai capital. Mangione and his expat friends were allegedly presented with an inflated bill of 50,000 Thai Baht, or around $1,500, after just a few drinks. When they refused to pay, they were set upon by as many as seven "ladyboys" - a colloquial term for Bangkok's transgender women.
Mangione survived the scuffle, emerging with bloody scratches, and later bragged about the "f***ing nuts story" to a friend he had met while traveling. The friend, who did not witness the incident firsthand, provided text messages and photos as proof of the encounter.
