Lexi Alexander Cheers Bank of America VP's Killing With Luigi Mangione Meme

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Sep 2

Lexi Alexander reposted news of Bank of America vice president Erin Piacenti’s fatal Times Square stabbing with a Batman image replacing the bat signal with Luigi Mangione’s face, appearing to celebrate the killing.
Piacenti was killed Monday in New York City, where a woman with a knife also wounded another person before police shot and killed the suspect; investigators are still examining the motive.
Alexander tied her posts to Bank of America’s past support for Israel, accused critics of being part of a “hasbara bot farm,” and amplified another user who said she did not care about Piacenti’s death.
The reaction echoed online support seen after Mangione was accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in 2024, a pattern critics have cited as evidence of growing tolerance for political violence.
