THE deranged supporters of accused CEO assassin Luigi Mangione are at each other’s throats fighting for his attention as one mystery fan managed to sneak a love note into his prison cell.
Ivy League aristocrat Mangione, 26, found the note in a pair of gifted socks before a hearing on the murder of Brian Thompson, but he refused to put them on because they didn’t match his style.

Mangione knew he was going to make a splash at his latest New York City court appearance, so he groomed himself carefully for the cameras, prosecutors claimed in court docs released Wednesday.
Before the February 21 hearing, he rifled through some gifts from out-of-touch supporters and stumbled upon a heart-shaped note hidden in a pair of gifted socks.
Despite being caught with the contraband, Mangione was allowed to wear the fresh pair for his court appearance.
However, in a bizarre move, Mangione went on to take the socks off right before his hearing because they didn’t suit his outfit, prosecutors said.
Since the letter came to light, obsessive fans have gone to war with each other, brawling about whether the note should have been written.
Some unhinged Reddit users on the Free Luigi page fear the gushing love for the accused killer could hurt his longshot case ahead of the trial.
One person wrote, “I, as a lawyer, would be livid if some uninformed, delusional fangirl […] f****d with my client’s case like this.
“Whoever did this – you’re not cute, you’re not smart, you’re not helping, and no serious professional person involved with this case would feel anything but disgust and anger towards you for this idiocy.”
Others agreed and blasted the fan, all the while insisting that supporting Mangione is a “just cause.”
“Prisons are notorious for doling out punishment for minor things that we may think of as nothing is everyday situations,” wrote another concerned fan.
Meanwhile, some more die-hard supporters defended the letter writer and believed they “meant well.”
“The real issue is why his representatives gave him these socks instead of simply buying socks for him themselves,” wrote the user.
