Luigi Mangione, the 26-year-old man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in Manhattan earlier this month, pleaded not guilty on Monday to the state charges he is facing, including murder.
Mangione’s not guilty plea comes after he was extradited late last week from Pennsylvania, where he was initially found and arrested, to New York, where the trial will be held. He is also facing four federal counts, including a charge of murder through use of a firearm, which could allow prosecutors to seek the death penalty.
But while prosecutors have said the state and federal cases will progress on parallel tracks, the state trial is expected to happen first. The maximum sentence Mangione could receive if convicted in the state trial is life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.

No need. The jury will be packed with commie trash from the area. At best, a hung jury.
I’m betting his lawyer is gonna try for a “stuck it to the man” jury sympathy play.
‘Not guilty’? Seriously!
That wouldn’t surprise me.
Good thing they cleared the courts in NYC of all the BOGUS cases against President Trump!
*SMIRK*
Praying for JUSTICE for the victim’s family.
Which isn’t surprising for a blue area in a very blue state.
That’s very likely to happen.
It’s infuriating.
“He is also facing four federal counts, including a charge of murder through use of a firearm...”
Why are the Feds prosecuting in this case?
Had a suspect shot an insurance company’s customer service representative, would the Feds prosecute?
Maybe Alvin Bragg is insane for piling on 11 charges including terrorism.
Then the feds step in with their charges.
“Some are more equal than others” when it comes to being a victim of crime.
“Some are more equal than others” the Marxist society depicted in Orwell’s “Animal Farm”.
Perhaps but if it were the janitor at Trump Tower or even you or I all these charges would not be on the table IMHO.
Murder is Murder why can’t we keep it simple.
Why did Deep State bigfoot this case?
Inquiring minds still wanna know...
Luigi gets his assumption of innocence but he made sure his victim didn’t get his.
Murderers lie too
Strange how the article left out that the killer was never a customer on the insurance company.
Defense attorney: She slammed what she called “the biggest staged perp walk I’ve ever seen,” referring to when Mangione was brought from Pennsylvania to New York on Thursday to face the charges over Thompson’s killing.
She must have already forgotten what the corrupt law enforcement agencies did to Trump.
So Pretty Boy is not only a murderer, he’s a lying freak show too. Nice. Way to go Luigi. Somewhere there are a bunch of jail birds waiting for them to bring your pretty boy butt in and open it for business.
This POS murdered in cold blood. Lock him away for life.
You have to plead not guilty otherwise you’ve given up all rights and can be immediately sentenced, no jury trial, nothing.
