Colin Jost Charges CEO Shooting Suspect With The 'Greatest Crime' On 'Weekend Update'
HuffPost
The "Weekend Update" host spotted how America is continuing its "delicate, sensitive debate" about the suspect.
Colin Jost mocked Luigi Mangione, the suspect charged in the deadly shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, over writings that officials found on him at the time of his recent arrest.
Mangione — in a “manifesto” released by independent journalist Ken Klippenstein on Tuesday — cited his anger toward corporate America and named several companies including Apple, Google as well as Walmart that have “grown and grown” while continuing to “abuse our country for immense profit.”
“Yet he went to Starbucks before the shooting and then was caught at McDonald’s so perhaps his greatest crime was hypocrisy,” quipped the “Weekend Update” host.
Jost — who joked that Americans are continuing a “delicate, sensitive debate” over who will play the suspect in a Netflix miniseries — turned to the one-star Yelp reviews hitting the McDonald’s location where a customer and employee recognized the suspect prior to his arrest.
“First of all, who looks at Yelp reviews of McDonald’s? The only Yelp review of McDonald’s should be, ‘Was open. Five stars,’” he said.
