Luigi Mangione is set for what may be the last pretrial conference before jury selection in his state murder trial over the December 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, with the state trial slated to begin Sept. 8 and a separate federal case ongoing. His lawyers are pressing for live broadcasts and an in-courthouse overflow feed to expand media access, while prosecutors and defense have debated a potential extreme emotional disturbance defense that was withdrawn; the federal trial is scheduled to begin Jan. 5, 2027.
