Luigi Mangione appeared in a New York courtroom Tuesday for what could be the final hearing before his state murder trial begins next month. Mangione, 28, has pleaded not guilty to several state charges in connection with the December 2024 fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside the New York Hilton Midtown. At Tuesday’s hearing, New York Supreme Court Justice Gregory Carro is expected to determine jury selection logistics — a task that could prove challenging given the case’s notoriety. Jury selection is set to begin September 8. Luigi Mangione appears for a pre-trial hearing at Manhattan Criminal Court in New York, on Tuesday, Aug. 11, 2026.
