Mangione lawyers argue double jeopardy should bar state murder trial

Original: ‘There is and was no other gun': Mangione team argues double jeopardy bars state murder trial

Lawyers for Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York, are arguing that his federal prosecution over the same killing means a state murder trial would violate double jeopardy protections. His team contends there is and was no other gun involved, aiming to block parallel prosecutions for a single act.

Why now: His legal team has just filed a high-stakes constitutional challenge against the state charges.
