法官警告司法部关于曼吉奥内案的公开评论

摘要

一名联邦法官警告司法部官员分享特朗普总统关于被控杀害联合健康保险公司首席执行官布莱恩·汤普森的路易吉·曼吉奥内的言论,可能影响审判的公正性。

一名联邦法官谴责司法部官员传播唐纳德·特朗普总统关于路易吉·曼吉奥内的评论,曼吉奥内被控谋杀联合健康保险公司首席执行官布莱恩·汤普森。法官指出,此类行为可能损害被告获得公正审判的权利。

在最近的一项法庭命令中,美国地区法官玛格丽特·加内特表示,至少有两名高级司法部官员可能违反了法庭规定,转发了特朗普总统关于曼吉奥内的言论。总统在福克斯新闻采访中称曼吉奥内为“纯粹的刺客”,并断言他“从背后射击了某人,就像你现在看着我一样清楚”。这些评论随后由司法部发言人查德·吉尔马丁在社交媒体上分享,并附言“@POTUS绝对正确”,随后由副助理司法部长布赖恩·涅维斯再次转发。

加内特法官强调,此类公开声明可能对针对曼吉奥内的联邦死刑案件产生偏见。她警告称,“未来的违规行为可能导致制裁,包括个人经济处罚、藐视法庭的裁定,或针对本案起诉的特定救济措施。”

27岁的曼吉奥内已对包括使用枪支谋杀、跟踪和枪支违法行为在内的指控表示不认罪。这些指控源于2024年12月曼哈顿一家酒店外对汤普森的枪击事件,当时联合健康保险正在该酒店举行投资者会议。联邦检察官正在寻求死刑判决。

辩护律师辩称,包括司法部长帕姆·邦迪关于“预谋、冷血刺杀震惊美国,故应判处死刑”的公开声明在内的高级官员言论,已侵犯曼吉奥内的宪法权利并对案件造成偏见。

司法部尚未对法官的命令作出回应。
