UnitedHealth CEO murder suspect Luigi Mangione in court today: live updates
Luigi Mangione, accused of fatally shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in a brazen midtown Manhattan attack.
Returns to court Monday as his defense team seeks to suppress key evidence seized during his arrest.
– Mangione, 27, was arrested at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s after a days-long manhunt.
– Police recovered a handgun, a loaded magazine, and a notebook from his backpack; the defense argues the search was illegal.
– Prosecutors say the gun matches ballistic evidence from the crime scene, and the writings show intent.
– Defense attorney Karen Friedman-Agnifilo calls the writings “prejudicial” and objects to the term “manifesto.”
– Monday’s state hearing is expected to last several days, with witnesses including a 911 operator and McDonald’s staff.
