Defense Challenge Evidence in Killing of US Health Insurance CEO

The defense challenges evidence after two terror charges were dropped, citing improper search and questioning in the case of a CEO's fatal shooting.

  • On Tuesday, Luigi Mangione, defendant, appeared in New York court and the defense sought to exclude prosecution evidence in the second-degree murder case of Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare.
  • Investigators say police recovered a silenced pistol and grievance notebook in Luigi Mangione's backpack after the court appearance Tuesday, where the murder victim was a top health insurance executive in Manhattan.
  • Defense lawyers argue the backpack evidence `must be suppressed because law enforcement failed to obtain a search warrant` and seek exclusion of McDonald's statements as custodial without Miranda warnings.
  • In September, a judge dismissed two terror charges while the second-degree murder charge remains and Luigi Mangione could face life imprisonment without parole if convicted.
  • The case has positioned Luigi Mangione as a lightning rod for anger at the US commercial healthcare system, with investigators recovering a notebook of grievances suggesting an ideological motive.
