New York judge tosses terrorism charges against Luigi Mangione, lets murder count stand

Judge Gregory Carro dismissed two state murder charges related to terrorism against Luigi Mangione on September 16, 2025, in a New York courtroom.
The dismissal followed Carro's finding that evidence was insufficient to prove Mangione aimed to intimidate or coerce a civilian population as required for terrorism charges.
Luigi Mangione, charged in connection with the December 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, still faces nine outstanding counts, including second-degree murder and several weapons-related charges.
The Manhattan District Attorney's Office acknowledged the ruling and confirmed they will continue to pursue the nine remaining charges, while supporters outside the courthouse displayed signs reading 'Save Luigi.'
Mangione's next hearing is scheduled for December 1, 2025, and he continues to plead not guilty amid a growing legal defense fund exceeding $1.3 million and widespread support.
