COURTHOUSE,
Dec 19 – 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, thread:
Luigi Mangione
has been brought in by US
Marshals, in a black
quarter-zip sweater.
Judge Parker:
What is the government's
position on bail? AUSA Domenic
Gentile: We are prepared to
argue for detention.
Mangione's lawyer
Karen Friedman Agnifilo: We
consent to detention without
prejudice to make a future
bail application. A
USA Gentile: The
Manhattan DA has also indicted
the defendant, we are in touch
with them. Judge Parker:
Anything furthur? Mangione's
lawyer Karen Friedman
Agnifilo: This is unusual.
Yesterday the Manhattan DA
held a press conference. There
was no mention of this
Karen Friedman
Agnifilo: The theories are
inconsistent. The charge here
is death eligible. Is it a
joint investigation? If so it
triggers discovery
obligations. It is confusing.
I've never seen this. Judge:
Mr. Gentile? AUSA Gentile:
There was a lot there.
AUSA Gentile: We
will address any legal
argument - in the appropriate
forum. Judge Parker: I advise
the parties to speak after
this proceeding about the
logistics between the Federal
and State proceedings...
Judge: Adjourned.
