A New York state judge threw alleged CEO killer Luigi Mangione a bone at a Monday hearing, determining that certain pieces of evidence are barred from the trial because of the way local police in Altoona, Pennsylvania, handled his arrest.
Critically, however, Judge Gregory Carro ruled that items that will be permitted at trial include a handgun found in Mangione’s backpack and a red notebook containing alleged references to the brazen daylight murder of Brian Thompson, head of UnitedHealthcare.
Thompson was shot dead in midtown Manhattan in December 2024, just before an annual investors’ conference, setting off a massive nationwide manhunt for his killer.
Mangione has pleaded not guilty to all charges as he faces a potential life sentence in a trial that is scheduled to begin Sept. 8. He appeared in court wearing a navy suit and pale blue shirt without a tie, and gazed in the direction of his attorneys as they conferred for several minutes with Carro.
