法官驳回对路易吉·曼吉奥内在联合健康首席执行官谋杀案中的恐怖主义指控
摘要
纽约一名法官驳回了对路易吉·曼吉奥内的恐怖主义相关谋杀指控，曼吉奥内被控杀害联合健康首席执行官布莱恩·汤普森，理由是证据不足。
纽约一名法官驳回了对路易吉·曼吉奥内的恐怖主义相关谋杀指控。曼吉奥内被控于2024年12月枪杀联合健康首席执行官布莱恩·汤普森。法官格雷戈里·卡罗裁定，提交的证据不足以支持作为恐怖主义犯罪的一级谋杀和作为恐怖主义行为的二级谋杀指控。
“虽然被告显然对联合健康及整个医疗行业抱有敌意，但这并不意味着他的目标是‘恐吓和胁迫平民’，事实上，没有证据显示有这样的目标，”卡罗法官在判决中表示。
曼哈顿地区检察官办公室对该裁决表示认可，并称：“我们尊重法院的决定，将继续对剩余的九项指控进行起诉，包括二级谋杀罪。”
26岁的曼吉奥内对剩余指控表示不认罪，这些指控包括二级谋杀、多项非法持有武器罪以及持有伪造文书罪。他还面临联邦指控，包括使用枪支谋杀，如果被定罪，可能面临死刑。
该案件持续引起公众广泛关注，曼吉奥内的支持者出席了庭审。他的下一次听证会定于12月1日举行。
