在联邦法庭承认两项跟踪罪名后，路易吉·曼吉奥内的辩护团队于周五向纽约法院提交动议，请求依据州法中的双重追诉保护条款驳回针对他的谋杀指控 1。律师方主张，无论是联邦还是州层面的起诉，其核心不当行为均指向同一事实，即蓄意杀害联合健康集团高管布莱恩·汤普森，并援引法规称“一个人不得因同一行为被两次起诉” 1。
对此，曼哈顿地区检察官办公室在10月9日提交反对意见，指出法定双重追诉原则仅适用于被告被单独起诉的情形，且认为联邦跟踪罪与州级谋杀罪在法律构成上并不重叠，因此不应触发该禁令 1。鉴于双方争议未决，法官格雷戈里·卡罗已将下一次庭审日期定于12月10日，而原定的州级审判日程此前已设定为9月8日 1。
Luigi Mangione’s defense attorneys have filed a motion to dismiss the state-level murder charges against him, arguing that the prosecution violates New York’s double jeopardy protections following his recent guilty plea in federal court 1. The lawyers contend that because Mangione admitted to two federal stalking counts on August 14 for the same conduct—intending to kill and killing UnitedHealthcare executive Brian Thompson—he cannot be tried again for the identical act at the state level 1. Specifically, the defense asserts that the core misconduct in both the federal and state indictments is the same, citing the legal principle that "a person shall not be twice put in jeopardy for the same offense" 1.
The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office has formally opposed the request, submitting papers on October 9 that argue the federal stalking charges do not overlap with the state murder allegations 1. Prosecutors maintain that statutory double jeopardy provisions apply only when a defendant is prosecuted "separately" for the same crime, and they assert that the elements of the federal case differ from those of the state indictment 1. Judge Gregory Carro, who had originally scheduled the state trial for September 8, has now set the next court hearing for December 10 to address these conflicting legal arguments 1.
