(NEW YORK) -- A judge in New York on Monday gave prosecutors at the Manhattan District Attorney's Office until Oct. 9 to respond to Luigi Mangione's motion to dismiss his state murder indictment, effectively meaning that Mangione's state murder trial -- which had been set to begin on Sept. 8 -- is adjourned.
On Friday, Mangione pleaded guilty to both federal stalking counts in his federal case and admitted to shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December 2024.
Immediately following Mangione's guilty plea, his attorneys filed a motion to dismiss the charges he's facing in state court under New York's double jeopardy law.
