Images of Mangione went viral and netizens took to social media platforms like X to comment on how the eyebrows of the man seen in the CCTV footage as Thompson's killer released by the NYPD and Mangione don't match. Commenting on the same, an X user tweeted:
Netizens compared a picture of the suspect in a cab and at Starbucks to a picture of Luigi Mangione, sharing their perspective on the same:
"funny tweet but, as with the starbucks guy and Luigi, cab guy's eyes and eyebrows don't match with luigi's either and these were taken one day apart." an X user commented
"Of course I could be wrong, but I don’t believe this is the same man. Luigi has big dark eyebrows, almost a unibrow in some pics. Dude on the right doesn’t." another X user mentioned
"These pictures are only a few days apart, so do Luigi's eyebrows grow super fast or something" an internet user stated comparing Mangione's mugshot to the suspect's surveillance image from Starbucks
