A federal judge dismissed two federal charges against Luigi Mangione that had exposed him to the death penalty. The judge ruled that the murder-through-firearm and firearms counts were legally incompatible with the remaining stalking charges, which means he no longer faces capital punishment in the federal case. The federal prosecution continues on the surviving charges, alongside the separate New York state case.
