Mangione’s defense team wants prosecutors barred from seeking the death penalty in the federal case.

Attorney General Pam Bondi should have recused herself from Luigi Mangione's federal murder trial over a "profound" conflict of interest, his attorneys have argued.

Bondi used to be a partner at Ballard Partners, a lobbying firm that represents UnitedHealthcare, and continues to profit from her links to the firm, Mangione's lawyers argued in a filing late Friday.

Mangione, 27, is accused of fatally shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, 50, on the streets of midtown Manhattan last December. He was arrested five days later at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania. He has pleaded not guilty to both state and federal charges.

This case should have been thrown out. Netflix made a show of him depicting him as guilty. This would sway the public opinion and there would be no 12 unbiased person as jurors.
- Also the chain of evidence was broken for literally all of the evidence they have against him.

Conflict of interest is what they do.
- It's all they do.

It will be fun to see what happens to her once the orange kiddie fiddler dies...
- If our next president is a Republican or corporate Democrat, nothing will happen to her.
  If we somehow get a populist Dem, then Obstruction of Justice Tampering with Witnesses/Evidence (18 U.S.C. § 1512) comes with a penalty of up to 30 years in federal prison. She would likely get sentenced to 10 and serve about 6 years for her role in the Epstein coverup.
  
  Our next president will be JD Vance.
  I've got him slotted in for a swearing in before next Christmas.

"Luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing" please please come on...

Recuse herself? Is this case being prosecuted by the actual AG?
- She's just illegally meddling in it

Bondi needs to go to prison for the rest of her life

Bondi's lust for power puts all those old white guys to shame.

Guys he didn't do it. It could have been any man with thick eyebrows who even knows?
