Mangione, 26, accused of carrying out ‘premeditated assassination’ of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson
Federal prosecutors are seeking the death penalty against the man accused of fatally shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel on 4 December, the US attorney general, Pam Bondi, said on Tuesday.
Bondi said she ordered prosecutors to seek execution for Luigi Mangione, 26, because – as she put it – he carried out “a premeditated, cold-blooded assassination that shocked America”.
