US prosecutors will seek the death penalty for Luigi Magioone, the man accused of killing UNITEDHEATHALCARE CEO Brian Thompson.
US Prosecutor General Pam Bondi said in a statement on Tuesday that she had directed federal prosecutors to seek the punishment for “deliberate, cold -blooded murder”.
Thompson was shot dead in front of a hotel in New York on December 4th. Police arrested Manguine, 26 years, weeks later in Pennsylvania after a nationwide Mann.
He admitted that he was not guilty and awaiting a trial at the Federal Prison in New York.
