Nino Mangione, cousin of accused United Healthcare CEO killer Luigi Mangione, narrowly won re-election to the Baltimore County Council on Tuesday, edging out his Democratic challenger in what is considered one of the county’s purplest districts.

Mangione, a staunch MAGA Republican whose grandfather was a multimillionaire real estate magnate, won the seat representing District 5 with 48.7 percent of the votes, beating Democrat Shawn McIntosh.

Shit, with that many relatives that could have been wronged by the system, you could have a Dexter-style series of several seasons: Mangione.

Too soon for Netflix to profit from, but I'm sure they already have the screenplay ready for 2028.
