Luigi Mangione set to plead guilty in federal case over insurance CEO killing

Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, is expected to plead guilty in his federal stalking case, according to Aol

A guilty plea would avert a federal trial and let Mangione seek dismissal of his separate state murder charge, set for trial next month, under double jeopardy protections.

A judge previously dropped federal murder and weapons charges, removing the death penalty as an option, though Mangione still faces possible life without parole. Manhattan prosecutors declined to comment on the report.
