Luigi Mangione's New York murder trial adjourned until December over double jeopardy concerns
Luigi Mangione's New York state murder trial has been adjourned until December following his defense team's motion to dismiss the charges in the wake of last week's guilty plea on related federal charges.
Jury selection had been penciled in to begin on Sept. 8 — but the guilty plea allowed his defense team to raise new double jeopardy concerns.
Prosecutors have until Oct. 9 to respond to the motion to dismiss, Judge Gregory Carro wrote in an order published to the court's website Monday afternoon.
