Accused assassin Luigi Mangione got some great news today courtesy of a New York judge who dropped some of the more serious charges against him.
Mangione is charged with the murder of UnitedHealthcare (UHC) CEO Brian Thompson, who was shot and killed on a Manhattan sidewalk as he was walking to an early morning investor’s meeting on December 4, 2024. Security footage of the killing shows a masked man draw a handgun and shoot Thompson in the back at point-blank range.

Today, judge Gregory Carro dropped the terrorism charges against Mangione and kept the second-degree murder charge and left other charges intact. In his ruling, he rejected the prosecution’s theory that the murder of Thompson was “intended to evoke terror.”
