""It's the holiday lunch special at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where Mangione is being held without bail for a second Christmas as he fights state and federal murder charges in the Manhattan ambush shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. "It looks, honestly, like you see it in pictures," former MDC detainee Brad Rouse told Business Insider of the annual avian treat. "They did put an effort in," said Rouse, who still remembers the detention center's once-a-year Cornish game hen almost two decades later."
"This being a federal lockup, there will be little else that is festive about the meal. As on any other day, the food will roll in from the kitchen without fanfare, transported inside a locked metal cart on wheels. "The corrections officer watches it go down the hall and has the key to open it," Rouse remembered. The meal will be served on the same plastic trays as every other meal."
Luigi Mangione is being held without bail at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn while he faces state and federal murder charges in the Manhattan ambush shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. He will spend a second Christmas in jail and receive the facility's holiday lunch special: a baked Cornish hen served with cranberry sauce and sides of spinach or macaroni and cheese. Former detainee Brad Rouse described the Cornish game hen as a well-cooked, delicious item and recalled it as the best meal of the year. Meals are transported in a locked metal cart, served on plastic trays by masked detainees, and eaten without forks or knives.
