Judge postpones Luigi Mangione federal murder trial to October

U.S. District Judge Margaret Garnett postponed Luigi Mangione's federal murder trial from September to October, with jury selection now set for October 5 and opening statements for October 26. The defense had requested a delay until January or February 2027, arguing they needed more time to prepare between the state and federal trials. Mangione faces charges in both federal and state court related to the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December 2024.
