Jurors in Mangione’s health CEO murder trial to receive anonymity
In highly publicised cases, it is common for judges to protect jurors' identities to shield them from the risk of harassment or intimidation.
New York judge Gregory Carro has ruled that jurors in the murder trial of Luigi Mangione will receive anonymity. Mangione is accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December 2024, in protest against the US insurance system. The trial is set to begin on September 8, with jury selection underway. Mangione, 28, faces a life sentence without parole if convicted of murder.
He also stands trial in federal court in January 2027 for two counts of harassment for allegedly stalking Thompson. Despite defense concerns regarding limited public access, judge Carro declined to exclude the public from proceedings, criticizing Mangione supporters for making "reckless mischaracterisations."
