‘Ironclad’ murder indictment for Luigi Mangione coming ‘any day now’: Gov. Hochul 

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul says accused killer Luigi Mangione will be indicted “any day now” for the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. 

“I trust the DA here in Manhattan to make sure that he puts forth an indictment that is going to be ironclad,” Hochul said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” 

Hochul said she trusts Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg to put together a strong case against Mangione, 26, adding that she will be issuing a warrant extradition the moment the indictment goes through. 

“I want to get him back here in the state of New York and run him through our criminal justice system, because that horrific attack occurred on our streets, and the people of our city deserve to have that sense of calm that this perpetrator has been caught and he will never see the light of day again if there is justice.

“You cannot assassinate an individual on the streets of New York. Not now. Not ever,” she said. 

Bragg said Thursday morning that he was confident in his office’s ability to secure an indictment as it presents mounting evidence against Mangione to a grand jury. 

“This is obviously a profound, profoundly disturbing, as we’ve alleged, murder,” Bragg told ABC 7. “We would not charge the person if we didn’t think it was the person and we’re prepared to go forward.”
