But arguably the biggest pieces of evidence — a handgun and notebook allegedly referencing Brian Thompson's murder — will be permitted at trial.
A judge ruled that some evidence found in Luigi Mangione’s backpack at the time of his arrest will be excluded from his upcoming trial however, other key items including the gun that Mangione allegedly used to murder UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson and the notebook he wrote his frustrations of the healthcare industry will be admissible. His lawyers argued that local police illegally searched his backpack when he was arrested at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s in December 2024. #LuigiMangione #Healthcare #Evidence #Courtcases
