Luigi Mangione is scheduled to appear in a Manhattan federal court on Friday for a hearing where he is expected to plead guilty in connection with the 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. The proceeding follows a joint letter filed earlier in the week by prosecutors and Mangione's defense lawyers requesting the 11 a.m. hearing.

The case stems from the high-profile targeted killing of the healthcare executive, which drew intense national attention. Friday's scheduled appearance marks a significant development in the federal prosecution as the legal proceedings move toward an expected guilty plea.
