The man accused of gunning down a health insurance executive outside a Midtown hotel last year is back in Manhattan court Monday as his lawyers look to suppress evidence in his case.
Defense attorneys for Luigi Mangione argue police officers didn’t read Mangione his Miranda rights or have a proper warrant when they arrested him and searched his backpack in a McDonalds in Altoona, Pennsylvania.
Prosecutors say police did nothing wrong and that the backpack's contents tie the 27-year-old to the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Mangione has pleaded not guilty to state and federal murder charges. Federal prosecutors are seeking the death penalty in the case.
This week’s suppression hearings, which are typically a low-profile procedural affair, are expected to draw large cro
