FRIDAY NIGHT SPECIAL: LUIGI MANGIONE, PUSH FOR THE DEATH PENALTY

from Crime Stories with Nancy Grace · host iHeartPodcasts and CrimeOnline

Luigi Mangione has been indicted on first-degree murder in furtherance of terrorism.  He is also charged with two counts of murder in the second degree, with one of those counts also denoting Mangione murder of CEO Brian Thompson as an act of terrorism. Now the Federal government is seeking the death penalty. Attorney General Pam Bondi directed federal prosecutors to seek the death penalty which marks the first such directive by the Trump administration.   New York, where the murder occurred, has abolished the death penalty, and Mangione's lawyers are attempting to block the federal death penalty pursuit, arguing the move is a political stunt.  Police questioned Mangione's mom the day before he was captured. She told officers that the shooting 'might be something that she could see him doing.'
