Mangione expected to plead guilty in federal case over UnitedHealthcare killing, AP source says
Luigi Mangione is expected to plead guilty in a federal case in New York as early as Friday, according to a person familiar with the matter. The charges stem from an alleged stalking and killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December 2024. Mangione is accused of traveling to New York City to ambush Thompson, who was walking to the company's annual investor conference.
Surveillance footage shows a masked gunman shooting Thompson, with "delay," "deny" and "depose" written on the ammunition. Mangione's lawyers and federal prosecutors have not commented, but if Mangione follows through with his plea, it would resolve one of two criminal cases against him.
