Luigi Mangione, the man accused of murdering a health care executive in a brazen attack on a Midtown street, is asking a judge to dismiss the most serious charges in his four-count federal indictment and to suppress evidence found in his backpack.

An attorney for Mangione submitted a motion to dismiss the murder and firearms charges in Manhattan federal court early Saturday morning, which — if successful — would eliminate the possibility of Mangione facing the death penalty.

The attorney, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, also argues prosecutors shouldn’t be able to use evidence collected from Mangione’s backpack, which she claims police should have gotten a warrant to search when Mangione was handcuffed in a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania, in the days following the December attack.
