Luigi Mangione Pleads Not Guilty to Murder and Terrorism Charges in Death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson
Dec 23, 2024, 01:38 PM
Luigi Mangione, 26, appeared in a Manhattan court on Monday to face state murder and terrorism charges in connection with the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson earlier this month outside a Manhattan hotel. Mangione is accused of fatally shooting Thompson and was arraigned on an 11-count indictment, including multiple counts of murder and weapons charges, including murder as an act of terrorism. During the arraignment, Mangione pleaded not guilty to the charges. His defense attorney, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, criticized Mayor Eric Adams for his public involvement in the case, stating that the mayor should respect the presumption of innocence. Outside the courthouse, supporters of Mangione gathered in protest, some holding banners reading 'Defend Deny Depose' and singing. The state case will run parallel to a federal prosecution that could potentially carry the death penalty.
