Latest News about Luigi Mangione
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.
Luigi Mangione was arraigned in federal court in New York and pleaded not guilty to charges including stalking and firearms-related offenses. The federal case was filed alongside separate New York state charges connected to the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Prosecutors alleged that he traveled across state lines to stalk and kill Thompson.
