Sick social media trolls celebrated the death of Wesley LePatner, the Blackstone executive killed in Monday’s midtown mass shooting, sharing depraved Luigi Mangione-inspired memes.
A photo of LePatner with the phrase “LUIGI’D” stamped in red across the face of the former senior managing director of Blackstone circulated on the internet following the shooting spree at 345 Park Ave. on Monday.
“Wesley LePatner, CEO of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, has been evicted from the mortal plane,” read the tasteless post shared on Facebook to thousands of likes.
The dreadful post referenced the infamous Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on the streets of Midtown Manhattan in a targeted assassination on Dec. 4.
Mangione has become a cult-figure in some gutter-minded circles, which valorize the alleged assassin as a courageous critic of the healthcare industry.
Other dirtbag leftists posted the phrase “CEO DOWN” and openly mocked the mourning of the mother of two who was killed with an M4 carbine while leaving work during rush-hour Monday.
LePatner, 46, was a senior managing director and the CEO of Blackstone’s Real Estate Income Trust —- a $53 billion portfolio, according to Bloomberg.
“We cannot properly express the grief we feel upon the sudden and tragic loss of Wesley,” her family said in a statement Tuesday.
“She was the most loving wife, mother, daughter, sister and relative, who enriched our lives in every way imaginable.”
The company further memorialized the loss of its valuable employee.
“Words cannot express the devastation we feel. Wesley was a beloved member of the Blackstone family and will be sorely missed,” Blackstone said in a statement to The Post.
LePatner was one of four people killed in the office tower shooting spree on Monday.
Shane Tamura, 27, also allegedly killed NYPD police officer Didarul Islam, Rudin Management employee Julia Hyman, and security guard Aland Etienne before turning the gun on himself on the 33rd floor of the skyscraper.
