Luigi Mangione
Don’t Let Feds Seek Death Penalty …
Defense’s Message To Judge
Published
Luigi Mangione says Uncle Sam wants to kill him as a political stunt … and his defense is calling on a judge to stop the feds from pursuing the death penalty if he’s convicted.
In new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Luigi’s attorneys claim the federal case against him is political, arbitrary, capricious and breaks from established death penalty protocol.
Luigi’s defense also rips a social media post from Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Justice Department … claiming the post makes it look like Luigi’s already been found guilty.
The post reads … “Luigi Mangione’s murder of Brian Thompson — an innocent man and father of two young children — was a premeditated, cold-blooded assassination that shocked America. After careful consideration, I have directed federal prosecutors to seek the death penalty in this case as we carry out President Trump’s agenda to stop violent crime and Make America Safe Again.”
Luigi’s lawyers say Bondi is tainting the potential grand jury pool with her public statements … and they claim she’s only seeking the death penalty because the man Luigi is accused of killing is a health care CEO.

Mangione’s attorneys are also asking the court to make the feds turn over documents and communications between the government and “anyone advocating for the death penalty or any penalty on behalf of any business, corporate interest, lobbyist or other party directly or indirectly.”
