Luigi Mangione, alleged UnitedHealthcare CEO killer's federal case pushed to April, according to court records

MANHATTAN — Luigi Mangione, who is accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, will not be appearing in Manhattan federal court this week as originally planned, as stated in the court docket.

Instead, Mangione’s federal case was pushed to April 18, according to the court docket.

The entry did not offer a reason.

A federal grand jury has yet to indict Mangione on federal charges, including one which could get him the death penalty.

Mangione has pleaded not guilty to state murder charges, including one with a terrorism enhancement.

The incident took place on December 4, 2024, outside the Hilton in Midtown Manhattan, where Thompson was on his way to an investors conference. Prosecutors believe the shooting was planned, targeted, and meant to instill fear.

Mangione is facing multiple charges including murder in the state of New York, federal charges like terrorism, and charges in Pennsylvania related to possessing an unlicensed firearm, forgery, and providing false identification to law enforcement. The federal charge of murder through the use of a firearm could result in the death penalty, though he has not been formally charged in federal court yet.

His lawyer in New York, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, has already presaged some of the arguments his Pennsylvania lawyer now has made with her words in a Manhattan courtroom last month, that there are “very serious issues” with how police in Pennsylvania obtained evidence from her client.
