The owner of the house, Malden Trifunovic, tells us the external cameras would show anyone who went in or out of the house ... so, the footage could help cops track Celeste's movements leading up to her demise.

Malden says he hasn't seen any of the footage himself, because he intentionally did not have access to the cameras, to allow his renters privacy -- so, he has no idea if Celeste was ever in the house.

Luigi Mangione is livin' large in the pokey ... because TMZ has learned he's got a whopping $40,000 in his commissary — and it's all thanks to his gazillion fans!

The alleged murderer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson is so beloved by his supporters that they funnel lotsa cash into his coffers at Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, according to a recently released jailhouse source whose information we corroborated.

And get this ... Luigi can spend the money on some cheap goodies such as Nutella Hazelnut spread for just $4.90, summer sausage for a mere $2.10, or some oatmeal for just $3.65. If Luigi wants something spicy, he can splurge on jalapeno wheels for $3.20 and, if he has a hankering for a block of Velveeta cheese, he can shell out $3.70. Bottom line is Luigi's got much more money than he can spend -- but he has a cap of $160 per visit to the commissary.
