Luigi Mangione
Luigi Mangione has pleaded guilty to federal stalking charges in the killing of United Healthcare CEO, Brian Thompson.
He admitted in Manhattan Federal Court on Friday that he trailed the executive to an investor conference on December 4, 2024 and gunned him down on a New York City street.
The 28-year-old said he used a ruse to glean information about the event, contacting the health insurance company ahead of time under the guise of being an investor of a multibillion-dollar firm.
Mangione is to be sentenced on December 18.
He entered the plea at a hastily scheduled hearing, resolving one of two cases against him in connection with Thompson's death.
Mangione's lawyers are now seeking to have his separate New York state murder case thrown out on double jeopardy grounds.
