>> david: good evening. we begin tonight with breaking news. law enforcement sources telling abc news that the spiral notebook belonging to the suspect in the ceo murder case offers chilling new details leading up to the crime, that notebook recovered after his arrest. tonight, authorities telling abc news luigi mangione's writings reveal increasing malice toward unitedhealthcare and its cle executive. tonight there's also news a florida woman now faces charges after making threats against her own health insurance company after her claim was denied. abc correspondent aaron katersky leading us off. >> reporter: tonight, a new window into the mind of the alleged killer of unitedhealthcare ceo brian compton. law enforcement sources tell abc news, luigi shot and killed the insurance

executive after fixating on him for months. passages in a spiral notebook recovered after his arrest in pennsylvania show a growing malice toward unitedhealthcare and its chief executive that culminated in gunfire on a midtown manhattan street. tonight after fighting his return to new york to face second degree murder charges, the manhattan district attorney says mangione may wave extradition and could be back in the city as early as next week. >> until that time, we're going to continue to press forward on parallel paths. we'll be ready whether he waves or contests extradition. >> reporter: mangione and his mother were covered by unitedhealthcare. now police say they're investigating whether he allegedly targeted unitedhealthcare because it's a large corporation. >> you have a young man who went to a ivy league school, came from an affluent background and family, had all the things that many americans would like to have, but he found himself hating corporations. >> reporter: the mayor says anger does not justify violence. but tonight new evidence mangione is being cast as a folk hero, from this billboard in california to this poster where
