Luigi Mangione will argue a psychiatric defense in state murder trial
Luigi Mangioneâs attorneys will present a psychiatric defense at his state murder trial this fall, arguing he killed UnitedHealthcareâs chief executive while experiencing an extreme emotional disturbance.
At a hearing Wednesday, Judge Gregory Carro said he planned to unseal records related to an affirmative defense available to New York state criminal defendants charged with murder, in which the accused admits to the charged conduct but argues they should not be held fully criminally liable because he or she acted while experiencing an extreme emotional disturbance.
A hearing in Mangioneâs case earlier this month had been sealed at the defenseâs request. The judge said he sealed information related to the defense because it would have been âvery prejudicialâ to Mangione if his attorneys decided not to move forward with the strategy.

Luigi Mangione's defense will claim 'extreme emotional disturbance'
Defense attorneys for Luigi Mangione plan to argue he was suffering from “extreme emotional disturbance" when he allegedly killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, a state judge revealed June 17.
Authorities say Mangione, 28, fatally shot Thompson outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel in New York City on Dec. 4, 2024. He was taken into custody at a Pennsylvania McDonald's after a five-day manhunt.
He was arrested and charged with nine felony counts, including second-degree murder, in New York state court. His New York state trial is expected to begin in September. Mangione faces separate charges in Pennsylvania and in federal court.
Acting New York Supreme Court Justice Gregory Carro, who is presiding over the case, said June 17 he will unseal records related to the psychiatric defense, although Mangione’s lawyer, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, argued doing so would impact the federal case against him, the Associated Press reported.
