Luigi Mangione pleaded guilty on Friday in federal court in New York to shooting UnitedHealthcare health insurance CEO Brian Thompson in 2024. At the hearing, he also admitted guilt to federal charges of aggravated stalking with intent to kill. aktuality.sk ↗

Mangione described to the judge how he stalked Thompson and subsequently shot him on a street in Manhattan. According to available information, it was a hearing called following a joint request by the defense and the prosecution. The guilty plea came shortly before a planned federal trial, and in this case he faces a life sentence. hnonline.sk ↗

The defendant is also facing separate proceedings in a New York state court. This trial is scheduled to begin on September 8. According to available information, his defense will attempt to challenge further prosecution by arguing double jeopardy for the same act. novinky.cz ↗

The case has attracted considerable attention from the beginning, as the victim was a high-ranking representative of one of the largest American health insurance companies. Further developments will depend on the federal court's decision following the guilty plea and how the state court addresses the defense's objections before the September trial.
