Luigi Mangione to appear in federal court over killing of healthcare chief

Murder suspect, charged separately in state court, could face death penalty if convicted over Brian Thompson death

Luigi Mangione is scheduled to appear in Manhattan federal court on Friday for arraignment on charges that he tracked and murdered the UnitedHealthcare chief executive, Brian Thompson, late last year.

Mangione, 26, could face the death penalty in a case that shocked America for the killing of a top business executive on New York's streets but also triggered an outpouring of anger against America's for-profit healthcare industry.
