Original: Mangione’s Lawyers Ask Judge to Dismiss State Murder Case on Double Jeopardy

The motion comes as Mangione also faces federal charges related to the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Legal observers are watching closely, as the overlap between state and federal prosecutions raises unresolved constitutional questions about successive prosecutions for the same alleged crime.
