Mangione's lawyers urge blocking death penalty in CEO murder case
Luigi Mangione's lawyers urge the court to block prosecutors from seeking death penalty for their client, who has been charged with murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. They argued that "dehumanising, unconstitutional" perp walk and media attention violated his due process rights. They added that "damaging nature" of prejudice faced by Mangione should warrant dismissal of death penalty.
