Luigi Mangione will assert a psychiatric defense at his state murder trial in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Mangione’s lawyers informed Judge Gregory Carro they will attempt to show he suffered extreme emotional disturbance at the time of the killing. If a jury accepts that defense, Mangione could be convicted of manslaughter instead of murder and face a substantially lighter prison sentence.
