Attorney General Pamela Bondi has directed federal prosecutors to seek the death penalty for Luigi Mangione, who is accused of stalking and murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York City last year. Mangione, 26, was charged with first-degree murder by state prosecutors as well. Bondi cited President Trump’s agenda to stop violent crime as the reason for seeking the death penalty. Mangione has pleaded not guilty to all charges. The murder of Thompson, described as a premeditated and cold-blooded assassination, has shocked the nation. The case is still developing, and updates are expected. Matt Lavietes, a reporter for NBC News, is covering the story.
