Luigi Mangione, accused of assassinating UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, appeared in court for the first of three hearings to contest evidence obtained during his arrest. The 27-year-old allegedly stalked Thompson before fatally shooting him outside a Manhattan hotel. Mangione’s lawyers are seeking to suppress physical evidence, including the suspected murder weapon, and statements made to police prior to a Miranda warning. He faces multiple charges in New York and Pennsylvania, including second-degree murder, with potential life imprisonment or the death penalty if convicted on federal charges.
