Luigi Mangione’s Lawyers Slam Trump in Bid to Dismiss Charges

Luigi Mangione’s defense attorneys want to have his federal charges dismissed because, they say, the Trump Administration has made him “a pawn to further its political agenda.”

In newly filed court documents, lawyers for Mangione, 27, asked a judge to dismiss all three federal charges against the alleged killer, who stands accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in 2024.

The filing accuses President Donald Trump of directly interfering in the case on multiple occasions, including by labeling Mangione a domestic terrorist and exercising “unprecedented intervention” with DOJ activity.
