Mangione, 28, admitted in federal court to killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson during his guilty plea to two stalking charges tied to the shooting. 'I shot Mr Thompson and he died,' Mangione told the judge. 'I knew what I was doing was illegal.' The two federal charges carry a potential life sentence, while Mangione still faces a separate state murder case in New York. Thompson’s family was in court for the hearing, where they came face-to-face with Mangione for the first time. 📸 Getty #news #usa #luigimangione #unitedhealthcare
