A New York judge has tossed out the terrorism charges against Luigi Mangione, who is suspected of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson last December; the other charges were kept in place, including a second-degree murder count. The judge’s ruling spared Mangione of a possible mandatory life sentence without parole. Judge Gregory Carro wrote, “While the defendant was clearly expressing an animus toward United Healthcare, and the health care industry generally, it does not follow that his goal was to 'intimidate and coerce a civilian population,' and indeed, there was no evidence presented of such a goal.”
