Lawyers representing Luigi Mangione, the man accused of fatally shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in Manhattan in late 2024, have dropped plans to pursue a psychiatric defense in his state murder trial. The decision comes just a day after attorneys suggested they would argue he was experiencing extreme emotional disturbance at the time of the shooting. Mangione, 28, continues to plead not guilty to both state and federal charges. #BrianThompson #Crime #UnitedHealthcare #USNews #CourtC
