Luigi Mangione seeks to drop the charge of terrorism in New York

Luigi Mangion, accused of shooting in December, challenges Brian Thompson, CEO of UNITEDHEALTHCARE, of the most dangerous charges of his accusation in New York – first -class murder and murder as a terrorist crime.

In a 57 -page defense file, it was published on Thursday night, his lawyers argue that there is no evidence that manages aim to intimidate or force the civilian population, as required to prove those higher charges.

“The implementation of the law of terrorism in New York to this issue would calm down and redefine the definition of the legislative body of terrorism,” said Mangun lawyers.

The charge of terrorism in New York State

Lawyers have argued that terrorism was designed in the state for crimes against many civilians, and the evidence of the Greater Persons Authority in this case was not supported.

The major jurors heard one witnesses that UN care workers received threats in the wake of the shooting on December 4, according to the file.

The same witness told the big jurists that some employees were afraid after the company told them “not to wear clothes publicly with the company’s logo,” the file said.

“This testimony, however, is not related to the element of whether Mr. Mangarians aim to intimidate or force the civilian population,” read the deposit, which was signed by the main defense lawyer, Karen Friedman Agnevilo, Mark Agnifilo, and Jacob Kaplan.

The charge of terrorism also depends on the “alleged writings of Mr. Mangion”, but these writings do not refer to UHC employees on a large scale and “shows that Mr. Mangarians are not looking to intimidate any society,” the file said.

For example, manganese indicated in his writings, “Ted Kakzhenski was” a monster “and” terrorist “, the worst thing that a person can be” because his mail bombs target civilians randomly.

“In this way, these writings cannot be the basis for supporting the result that it intends to intimidate or force them to the civilian population; in fact they support the exact opposite,” said Magun attorneys.

The charges of the supreme state bear the potential maximum of life in prison without conditional release. Managers also face federal murder charges; American lawyer Bam Bondi said she would seek the death penalty.

Business Insider’s prosecutors have also told Business Insider that they also intend to put a mangist on the trial for weapons and forgery related to his arrest there; They said that their trial would be held after concluding federal trials in Manhattan.

Three accusations manganese

The defense re -presents the previous arguments that indicate that the three accusations of mangione represent the “unprecedented Public Prosecution”.

His lawyers wrote: “Mr. Mangarians are now facing three simultaneous trials in three different judicial states – one of which seeks the death penalty, while the other seeks life imprisonment – all of this for a set of facts.”

The defense file argues that federal killings and federal killing “violate the condition of dual danger and the constitutional rights of Mr. Mangion” because his defense can be used in one case against him in the other.

What is the case of killing that will go to the trial first – the case of the state filed in the province of Alfidin Prague, or the federal case under the interim American lawyer in Manhattan, Jay Clayton – is still a point of conflict.

“The unprecedented situation of Mr. Manjion and the accompanying constitutional concerns and allowing the death penalty to be submitted to move forward first.” The file at the state level in Manjeun, the state of the state, asks the state of the state, Gregory Caro.

Deposit also requires Caro to exclude large areas of evidence from his arrest in Pennsylvania-including ghost rifle and what the police call there “a statement”-does he have to be tried on charges of murder and terrorism at the state level?

The judge is asked to suppress any statements made by manganese to the Tuna Police Administration officers after he was seen in one of McDonald’s after a five -day hunt.

New photos released

The deposit includes two formerly unpublished pictures of Altona police cameras. The widely popular shots appear sitting alone at the corner of the restaurant. One of the shots shows a unified officer in what he called the defense file “a strategic position that prevents the departure of Mr. Manjiun.”

Public Prosecutors in Manhattan, led by Assistant Prosecutor Joel Sidman, have until May 28 to respond to defense requests.

Managers acknowledged that he was not guilty of all the three accusations regulations and is being held without a sponsorship awaiting trial; The next court date is in front of Caro on June 26.
