Eagle-eyed Shein shoppers spotted an unlikely face appearing to model a product for the discount retailer: accused killer Luigi Mangione.
A product listing for a men's collared shirt on Shein's website began to circulate in social media posts on Sept. 2. One of the product images, purportedly aiming to portray the shirt on a model, featured a man who looked like Mangione.
Mangione is accused of shooting and killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December 2024. A federal grand jury in New York indicted the 27-year-old on several counts, including stalking and murder in April. He has pleaded not guilty.
Agnifilo Intrater law firm, which represents Mangione, declined to comment when contacted by USA TODAY.
In a statement to USA TODAY, Shein said the image "was provided by a third-party vendor and was removed immediately upon discovery."
