A federal judge has ruled that prosecutors cannot seek the death penalty against Luigi Mangione in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
U.S. District Judge Margaret Garnett dismissed a federal murder charge against Mangione, finding it was legally flawed. The decision blocks the Trump administration’s effort to pursue capital punishment in the high-profile case.
Garnett left in place federal stalking charges, which carry a maximum possible sentence of life in prison. Mangione has pleaded not guilty to both federal and state charges related to Thompson’s death.
Thompson was shot and killed in December 2024 as he walked to an investor conference in midtown Manhattan. Prosecutors had described the killing as a premeditated assassination.
While the death penalty is no longer an option at the federal level, Mangione still faces life-in-prison sentences if convicted. State murder charges remain pending, and future court dates are scheduled in both cases.
The Justice Department has released a new batch of documents from its investigation into financier Jeffrey Epstein and his longtime associate, Ghislaine Maxwell.
The records were made public Friday under a law aimed at increasing transparency around what the government knew about Epstein’s sexual abuse of underage girls and his interactions with wealthy and powerful individuals.
The newly released files are part of a much larger collection of records. Federal officials say millions of pages are still being reviewed, with hundreds of Justice Department attorneys working to redact information that could identify victims or compromise privacy protections.
Epstein was arrested in 2019 on federal sex trafficking charges but died by suicide later that year while being held at a New York jail. His death has fueled ongoing public scrutiny and conspiracy theories, as well as continued demands for the release of government records related to his case.
The Justice Department says additional documents may be released as the review process continues.

President Donald Trump is threatening new tariffs on any country that sells oil to Cuba, a move that is putting fresh pressure on Mexico.
Trump signed an executive order that would impose tariffs on goods from countries supplying oil to the Cuban government. The move comes amid heightened U.S. tensions with Cuba following recent military operations targeting Venezuela’s former president Nicolás Maduro.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said her government has at least temporarily halted oil shipments to Cuba, calling it a “sovereign decision” not made under U.S. pressure.
The executive order is designed to isolate the Cuban government economically and signal U.S. support for a shift in Cuba’s leadership. Trump has repeatedly said the Cuban government is ready to fall, tying the policy to broader U.S. actions in Latin America.
The order could have significant economic implications for countries that maintain trade ties with Cuba, particularly Mexico, a key regional trading partner.
The White House did not immediately provide further details about enforcement or which other countries might be affected by the tariffs.
Amazon MGM Studios releases the highly anticipated documentary Melania today, offering rare insight into the First Lady’s role leading up to the 2025 inauguration and her return to the White House. The film, produced by Melania Trump herself, hits theaters in the U.S. and Canada and will be available in 25 international markets.
Former CNN journalist Don Lemon has been arrested by federal agents in Los Angeles in connection with a church protest in Minnesota, his attorney confirmed Friday.
The protest, which took place on January 18 in St. Paul, disrupted a church service and involved demonstrators opposing immigration enforcement. Lemon was on-site covering the demonstration when the incident occurred.
It is currently unclear what charges, if any, Lemon is facing. A magistrate judge had previously rejected prosecutors’ initial attempt to charge him in the case.
Lemon’s attorney said he plans to "fight any charges vigorously and thoroughly in court." Lemon, who has been based in Los Angeles while covering events nationwide, was taken into custody without incident.
Federal authorities have not provided further comment, and the investigation remains ongoing.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order Thursday that would impose tariffs on any goods from countries that sell or provide oil to Cuba, escalating pressure on Mexico.
The move comes amid broader U.S. efforts to isolate the Cuban government following recent geopolitical tensions in Latin America. Under the order, tariffs would be applied to imports from nations that continue to supply oil to Havana.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said her government has at least temporarily halted shipments of oil to Cuba, calling the decision a “sovereign choice” not made under U.S. pressure.
Trump’s action is seen as part of a larger strategy to pressure nations in the region to distance themselves from Cuba. The executive order follows the U.S. military operation in Venezuela aimed at ousting former
President Nicolás Maduro, with Trump asserting that the Cuban government is ready to fall.
The policy underscores the administration’s willingness to use economic leverage to influence foreign governments, even as it risks straining relations with regional allies.
A U.S. official, speaking on background, said the executive order reflects Trump’s broader focus on applying “maximum pressure” on governments that support regimes the U.S. opposes.
President Donald Trump announced his choice for Federal Reserve chairman on Friday morning. Kevin Warsh will now be the new Fed Chair. Trump has criticized current Fed Chair Jerome Powell for not cutting interest rates more aggressively. Trump is believed to have four finalists for the position, but did not give details on Thursday. Tensions have been high between Trump and the Fed, with Powell emphasizing the importance of independent judgment and accountability to Congress. Powell's term ends in May, but he could remain on the board until 2028.
