Mangione’s defense team wants prosecutors barred from seeking the death penalty in the federal case.
Attorney General Pam Bondi should have recused herself from Luigi Mangione’s federal murder trial over a “profound” conflict of interest, his attorneys have argued.
Bondi used to be a partner at Ballard Partners, a lobbying firm that represents UnitedHealthcare, and continues to profit from her links to the firm, Mangione’s lawyers argued in a filing late Friday.
Mangione, 27, is accused of fatally shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, 50, on the streets of midtown Manhattan last December. He was arrested five days later at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania. He has pleaded not guilty to both state and federal charges.
This case should have been thrown out. Netflix made a show of him depicting him as guilty. This would sway the public opinion and there would be no 12 unbiased person as jurors.
Netflix did WHAT‽

It was actually HBO, but I don’t know who owned them this time last year
Also the chain of evidence was broken for literally all of the evidence they have against him.
