Summary

Luigi Mangione, accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, is set to appear in a New York courtroom Friday for a hearing on evidence exchange and a potential trial date.

He faces state murder charges with a terrorism enhancement, carrying a life sentence without parole.

Mangione also faces federal charges, including one with a potential death penalty, and separate charges in Pennsylvania. His defense claims political bias in the case.

    Do you think enough people will learn of this in time for the jury selection, in theory?

    Can nods or other physical gestures count as an intent to nullify the process? Like a fresh tattoo of the green super mario bro. There’s plausible deniability there, right?

    Sorry for all the questions, I’m just sick of talking to chatbots. I crave answers from human beings. I don’t want a chatbot’s heartless, supposedly unbiased answer. Throw in as much bias as you’d like.
