In Luigi Mangione Cases NY Carro Wants to be 1st on June 8 Now His Lawyers Write to SDNY

by Matthew Russell Lee, Substack Book Patreon

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Feb 9 – Luigi Mangione was presented in Federal court on December 19 on four charges, one of them death penalty eligible, for the killing of UnitedHealth CEO Brian Thompson. Inner City Press was there, covering the case toward a book.

On April 1 DOJ announced it would seek the death penalty against Mangione. But SDNY Judge Margaret Garnett dismissed the death eligible charges, and set an October 13 court date.

  On February 6 NYS Justice Gregory Carro convened a hearing and, after a long whispered sidebar, announced that NY and he should go first, on June 8. Karen Friedman Agnifilo said that was too fast, and said she would raise double jeopardy.

On January 14 Judge Garnett set the hearing for January 23 at 11 am: "as to Luigi Nicholas Mangione: The suppression hearing referenced in the Court's January 12 Order (Dkt. No. 90) will be held on Friday, January 23, 2026 at 11:00 a.m."

The hearing went 11 to 12:30, about Altoona PD's policies for searches, ending with if an item found in a vehicle, go get a warrant. But not a bag? Judge Garnett called it helpful, "see you in a week."
