Luigi Mangione, the 26-year-old man accused of gunning down UnitedHealthCare CEO Brian Thompson in front of a New York City hotel, appeared in court Friday for the first time since he was arraigned in December on state murder and terror charges. He has pleaded not guilty.Dozens of Mangione supporters started lining up outside the courthouse around 4 a.m., hoping for a chance to be inside the room for the afternoon hearing. One woman wore a scarf emblazoned with "FREE MANGIONE" in large letters.
Mangione, who is being held in a federal jail in Brooklyn, also faces federal charges that come with the possibility of the death penalty. The cases will move forward on parallel tracks, prosecutors have said, though the state charges are expected to go to trial first.
