10:58Now PlayingLuigi Mangione pleaded guilty to federal stalking charges in connection with the 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in Manhattan.
LiveNOW’s Anna Marsick spoke about the guilty plea, and if it triggers double jeopardy in his New York state case, with former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani.
WHAT'S NEXT:
Mangione's sentencing in the federal case is scheduled for December 18, according to FOX 5 New York.
The federal charges accuse Mangione of stalking Thompson to cause his death. Both the federal and state cases could lead to a life prison sentence.
A federal judge earlier this year tossed out additional charges that could have exposed Mangione to a potential death penalty.
Mangione is scheduled to go on trial Sept. 8 on state murder charges. With his guilty plea in federal court, his lawyers could seek to have the state case thrown out on double jeopardy grounds.
Mangione had complained about the prospect of two trials, telling a judge in February: "It’s the same trial twice. One plus one is two. Double jeopardy by any commonsense definition."
Under New York law, a state prosecution could potentially be barred if the federal case is resolved first.
