· KRGV (NBC 5)
Luigi Mangione, 28, pleaded guilty to federal stalking charges related to the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. In a Manhattan federal court, Mangione admitted to following Thompson to an investor conference and shooting him on December 4, 2024. He crafted the weapon using a 3D printer and deceived the company to gain access to the event. Prosecutors are seeking a life sentence, with sentencing scheduled for December 18. Mangione's defense claims he should not face two prosecutions for one incident, while authorities maintain that his grievances do not justify the murder. He was arrested five days after the shooting.
