Luigi Mangione pleaded guilty on Friday, August 14, in federal court in New York to the killing of UnitedHealthcare director Brian Thompson. He pleaded guilty to federal charges of interstate stalking resulting in death and stated that he shot Thompson in Manhattan. aktuality.sk ↗
According to the court statement, the twenty-eight-year-old Mangione stalked Thompson before the attack with the intent to kill him. At the hearing, he stated that he knew his actions were illegal. Thompson died from the shooting in 2024 in downtown New York. Mangione had previously denied the charges, but on Friday changed his stance in the federal proceeding. BBC News ↗
The hearing was scheduled hastily following a joint request by the defense and prosecution. The guilty plea means that in the federal part of the case, there will be no full trial. Members of Thompson's family were present in the courtroom, and according to accounts of the hearing, they cried while the plea was being read.
However, Mangione continues to face a separate state trial for murder. This trial is scheduled to begin on September 8. In the federal case, the sentence is to be announced on December 18, and Mangione could face a life sentence. The case remains closely followed due to the circumstances of the attack on a high-ranking representative of the American health insurance industry and due to the parallel federal and state proceedings.
