  "account": "New York prosecutors are pushing to keep their murder case against Luigi Mangione going, maintaining that his federal guilty plea should not terminate an ongoing state-court trial for the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Prosecutors argue that the separate incidents, harms and purposes warrant continued proceedings, while Mangione's defense claims double jeopardy is at play. The federal plea has already resulted in a looming prison sentence, which a state conviction could further extend.",
