MANGIONE’S CRAZY LEGAL MOVES

Bails on ‘emotional disturbance’ strategy after just ONE DAY!

- 

LUIGI MANGIONE’S legal defense strategy seems a bit, well, crazy.

The alleged insurance CEO assassin/woke folk hero’s lawyers announced they would be mounting an “extreme emotional disturbance” defense, only to bizarrely reverse field the following day!

“The defense respectfully withdraws CPL 250.10 notice at this time,” the accused killer’s lawyers wrote to Judge Gregory Carro in Manhattan Supreme Court.

Before the withdrawal, legal pundits seemed to agree the initial strategy was to play on the 28-year-old Ivy Leaguer’s state of mind when he allegedly pulled the trigger and killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in cold blood on a Manhattan sidewalk in December 2024.

Mangione's popularity - and ego may have led to his defense team's sudden shift, experts say

“This is not a crazy defense,” according to legendary New York City defense lawyer Ron Kuby, who is not part of Mangione’s legal team.
